Top performers (tournament highlights)

Leading batters

Ibrahim Zadran (AFG) — one of the tournament’s most consistent run-scorers at top order.

Leading bowlers

Rashid Khan & Mujeeb Ur Rahman (AFG) — key wicket-taking options in the series.

Notable performances

Fakhar Zaman (PAK) and Abrar Ahmed (PAK) have delivered big match contributions during the group stage.

Pitch & weather (Sharjah)

Sharjah has offered a generally balanced T20 surface during the series — early batting rewards powerplay hitters while the middle overs can slow slightly and assist spinners. Expect evening conditions (typical Sharjah climate in early September): warm late afternoons cooling into pleasant evenings. Add a local weather widget on matchday to keep the preview fresh.

Prediction & what to watch

Both teams arrive in good touch. Afghanistan’s spin attack (Rashid, Mujeeb, Noor) plus solid top-order contributions make them a strong contender; Pakistan’s mix of pace, experience and all-round options keeps them evenly matched. Toss and the first six overs will be decisive — expect a closely fought final. A conservative, data-aware call: this final is essentially a toss-influenced 50/50 contest.
