Dunedin: Samiullah Shenwari insisted he'd simply "done my job" after his superb 96 set-up Afghanistan's first-ever World Cup win with a thrilling one-wicket victory over Scotland in Dunedin today.

Afghanistan collapsed to 97 for seven in pursuit of a modest target of 211 and were all but out of this Pool A clash at University Oval. But for the second time in as many days, following Ireland's nailbiting win over the United Arab Emirates on Wednesday, two non-Test nations produced a dramatic climax to a World Cup match.
