In the ongoing clash between England and Afghanistan during the 2023 World Cup, the match took an unexpected turn as wickets tumbled in quick succession, leading to a deceleration in the run rate. The highlight of the innings was the dismissal of Afghanistan's Mohammad Nabi in the 36th over. Nabi, who had been struggling to find his form, managed to score only 9 runs off 14 deliveries.

It was England's Mark Wood who brought about Nabi's downfall with a well-executed short delivery. The pace generated by Wood caught Nabi off guard, causing the batsman to awkwardly fend at the ball. The result was a feeble connection that sent the ball looping towards Joe Root, stationed in the gully region. Root made no mistake, securing the catch comfortably and bringing an end to Nabi's innings.

This pivotal wicket proved to be a turning point in the match, as Afghanistan was heavily relying on Nabi to anchor their innings. With his departure, the Afghan team faced an uphill battle to regain momentum and post a competitive total. Nabi's dismissal not only delighted the English fans but also underscored the significance of disciplined bowling and consistent pressure in the limited-overs format of the game.

At the time of writing, 210/6 after 40 overs.
