Referee: Hamim Khan. Toss: Kandahar Close of Play: 1st day: No play; 2nd day: Kunar (1) 256-6 (Hanif Kunrai 104, Ijaz Ul Haq 63, 46 overs). Man of the Match: Hanif Kunrai. Hanif Kunrai and Ijaz ul Haq added 318* for Kunar’s 7th wicket. This was the highest for that wicket in Afghanistan, beating the previous record of 192 by Younas Ahmadzai and Mohammad Sardar for Band-e-Amir v Speen Ghar at Khost in 2017/18. It was also the highest partnership in all first-class cricket by two debutants (see page 14 of the 2018 Annual for the previous record, and note that this record had now changed hands thrice in just over sixteen months, having previously stood since 1826). Abdul Malik, on first-class debut for Kandahar above, should not be confused with the Amo cricketer of the same name.
