Ind vs Afg, Day 2: Afghanistan all out for 109, India enforces follow-on

R Ashwin trapped Afghanistan batsmen as he scalped four wickets

Sports News: In the historic one-off test match, Afghanistan was bowled out inside a session for a meagre score of 109 runs as Indian bowlers did not show any leniency to the inexperienced side.

R Ashwin shined with the bowl, clinching four wickets, while Ishant Sharma and Ravindra jadeja picked 2 wickets each.

Afghanistan succumbed to India's fierce bowling attack and managed to just cross the 100-run mark. Mohammad nabi was the highest scorer for the batting side, scoring 24 runs, rest, the remaining batsmen fell on a cheap score.

For a nation playing its inaugural Test, Afghanistan's performance with the ball was moderately impressive and much goes to the temperament of the entire side.

Rashid Khan and Mujeeb ur Rahman, who have already experienced Indian conditions in IPL, displayed a decent show while Yamin Ahmadzai remained the most successful bowler for the side, clinching three wickets for 51 runs in his 19 overs.

Afghanistan seamers too displayed a decent form and adjusted well to the red ball, along with the spinners, including Rashid Khan, who struggled initially but then settled at last.

For India, banking on Dhawan and Vijay's tons, the inning was smooth, Pandya made a well-constructed half-century while on the other end, Ashwin and Jadeja, who was expected to accompany him, couldn't add much. Umesh Yadav scored more run than the two respectively.

With Ishant Sharma's fall, the curtains closed on India's inning and all eyes will be on Afghanistan's batting now as they face Indian seam and spin.
