Zim Afro T10: Hazratullah Zazai Leads Durban Qalandars To Historic First Title
The Durban Qalandars, buoyed by the power-hitting of the Afghanistan batter Hazratullah Zazai, clinched the title in the inaugural edition of the Zim Afro T10, defeating the Joburg Buffaloes in the final, in front of a packed house at the Harare Sports Club. On what was a historic night for Zimbabwe cricket, Zazai smashed a match-winning 43 not out from 22 deliveries to help deliver the title. The Qalandars won by 8 wickets and 4 balls to spare.
Asked to bat first, the Joburg Buffaloes came out of the gates very quickly, with the duo of Mohammad Hafeez and Tom Banton looking to score fast and entertain the packed house. The openers hit cleanly against the new ball and raced away to a 50-run partnership, getting to the mark in just over three overs.
But before the fourth over was completed Hafeez was cleaned up by George Linde for 32, and shortly after that, Will Smeed (5) was headed back to the hut. A few lusty hits later Banton lost his wicket for 36, with the score at 77/3 in the 7th over.
