India launched their chase against Afghanistan with a record-shattering 23 runs in the opening over, fueled by Yashasvi Jaiswal's aggressive batting and several extras. This remarkable start, following a five-run penalty against Afghanistan, set the tone for the chase. Earlier, Afghanistan posted 218, with captain Hashmatullah Shahidi scoring a century, but were undone by Prasidh Krishna's stellar 5-wicket haul.
