Six sides - West Indies, Ireland, Zimbabwe, Scotland, the UAE and Afghanistan - are competing for two spots at next year's World Cup in England, which is in a new format of just ten teams.

Evin Lewis tried to steady the innings with Hetmyer, sharing 34-run stand for the second wicket, but Hetmyer became Nabi's 100th ODI victim when the veteran off-spinner trapped him lbw for 15. But Nabi's departure created some panic in the Afghanistan camp as they slipped to 168 for six in the 44th over, but Rashid Khan ensured victory with three wickets for 14 balls to spare by scoring 13 invaluable runs. But today's opening match of the Super Sixes stage will have one of the strongest team in the competition take on a team that has just about made it to this round.

After winning the toss, West Indies elected to bat first. Nonetheless, the Windies will feel they should have won the match, but ultimately paid the price for several dropped catches and missed run-out opportunities.

The Afghan spin trio of Mohammad Nabi, Mujeeb Zadran, and Rashid Khan got six wickets amongst them and restricted West Indies to a mere 197 runs.

The bowlers bowled 39 overs between them in which they conceded 138 runs and took seven wickets.

The Asian team entered the tournament as one of the favourites to clinch the title but defeats against Scotland, Zimbabwe and Hong Kong nearly ended their campaign. However, West Indies will be favourites in the world cup qualifiers predictions to win this match.
