Leg-spinner Rashid Khan starred as Afghanistan wrapped up a dominant 4-1 series win over Zimbabwe yesterday, cruising to a 146-run victory in the fifth and final one-day international at Sharjah. After winning the toss and batting first, Afghanistan posted 241-9 from their 50 overs, before bowling out Zimbabwe for just 95.


The two teams meet again in Zimbabwe at the 2019 World Cup qualifiers next month, with the Asian side clear favourites to qualify for the tournament in England and Wales based on the evidence of this series. Khan, 19, struck a 29-ball 43, before taking the final three wickets to fall to finish with figures of 3-13. Khan continued his march towards becoming the fastest-ever bowler to reach 100 ODI wickets.
