Afghanistan progressed to the Super 10s stage of the World T20 after Mohammad Nabi’s maiden half-century inspired them to a 59-run victory over Zimbabwe in a winner-takes-all showdown in Nagpur. Nabi (52 from 32) and Samiullah Shenwari (43 from 37) added 98 for the fifth wicket - Afghanistans second highest stand in T20Is, behind the 110 Mohammad Shahzad and Asghar Stanikzai put on against Scotland in Edinburgh last July - as the Asian side recovered from 63-4 to post 186-6.Seventeen-year-old spinner Rashid Khan (3-11) then impressed with the ball as Zimbabwe were dismissed for 127 in 19.4 overs to lose a fifth straight Twenty20 international against Afghanistan and exit the tournament.Afghanistan, though, now head into a Super 10s pool featuring England, South Africa, West Indies and Sri Lanka, with their opening match, against Sri Lanka, on Thursday.Shahzads 23-ball 40 helped Afghanistan race to 49-0 in the fifth over after winning the toss but the Associate nation began to wobble once Shahzad - who plundered 61 and 41 in the wins over Scotland and Hong Kong respectively - reverse swept straight to point.Stanikzai was caught at midwicket for a two-ball duck as Tinashe Panyangaras three-wicket burst ensured Afghanistan lost four for 14 in 20 deliveries, before Nabi and Shenwari firstly rebuilt and then accelerated as Stanikzais men amassed 88 from the last six overs.Shenwari was given a reprieve on 14 when his mow to deep midwicket was adjudged by the third umpire to have bounced before it was caught by Malcolm Waller but he eventually holed out in the same region, with Nabi run out from the penultimate ball.Zimbabwes hopes of overhauling the highest total in this years first round were dented when captain Hamilton Masakadza (11) was bowled in the fourth over and Vusi Sibanda (13) was caught off a top-edge in the seventh.None of the African teams batsmen got to grips with the Afghanistan attack, emphasised by No 10 Panyangara top scoring with 17no from seven balls after hitting two huge - but ultimately futile - sixes over long-on.Afghanistan captain Asghar Stanikzai: This was very important as the Afghanistan people are crazy about cricket. Shahzad started very well and then Nabi and Senwari had a very good partnership, which is important ahead of the next round.Zimbabwe captain Hamilton Masakadza: Afghanistan played a lot better than us, outplaying us in every facet. From the moment they started going in the powerplay we were always struggling but we didnt carry out our plans.Sky Sports Nick Knight: Afghanistan have been very impressive. They have talent, pace and spin but from 63-4 they also showed they have the ability to assess the game situation. Their bowling could really test the big nations.Sky Sports is the only place you can watch all 35 games in 27 days of the 2016 ICC World T20.

Ron Jaworski Womens Jersey .ca NBA Power Rankings, ahead of the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs.AMES, Iowa -- Iowa State coach Steve Prohm said last month that forward Deonte Burtons goal should be to get a double-double every game.Burton got his first one out of the way Monday night, helping the 20th-ranked Cyclones through their first bout of minor adversity this season.Monte Morris scored 18 points, Matt Thomas added 13 and Iowa State beat Mount St. Marys 73-55.Burton had 10 points and 13 rebounds for the Cyclones (2-0), whove won their first two games by an average of 30 points.Hes made such great strides. Im very, very proud of him. But now hes got to continue to push himself to make the next step, Prohm said.Mount St. Marys (0-2) got within 10 early in the second half, but six Cyclones scored during a 15-1 run that put the game out of reach.Iowa State outrebounded Mount St. Marys 50-38, but it also shot an uncharacteristic 4 of 16 from 3-point range.Nick Weiler-Babb scored 10 points on 5-of-6 shooting and pulled down five rebounds for the Cyclones.It was a win. It probably wasnt our best performance offensively. At times defensively also, Morris said.Elijah Long, the brother of Iowa States Naz Mitrou-Long, had 19 points to lead the Mountaineers.BIG PICTUREIowa State: Through two games, its clear the rebuilt Cyclones have a ton of talent -- and theyre much deeper than they were a year ago. But fans wont start to find out if that will translate vs. top competition until next week, when the Iowa State travels to Orlando for a tournament that could include a matchup with No. 14 Gonzaga.Mount St. Marys: Long finally got to play against his brother with roughly 20 family membeers in attendance -- and Elijah helped his team keep it respectable.dddddddddddd The Mountaineers showed some fight too, pushing the Cyclones after falling behind by 17 at halftime.POLL IMPLICATIONSIowa State jumped up four spots on Monday simply by throttling Savannah State on Friday. A few more blowouts and a few more losses by teams ahead of the Cyclones could help Iowa State inch further up the poll.SIMEONS SUSPENSIONIowa State announced before the game that reserve Simeon Carter had been suspended three games for violating team rules. Its yet another setback for the once-promising recruit, who appears to be out of Prohms rotation for the second year in a row.HONORING DEJEAN-JONESIowa State honored former player Bryce Dejean-Jones, who was killed over the summer after a promising rookie season with the New Orleans Pelicans, by wearing warmup shirts with his number. A lot of people that didnt know him probably had their own opinion of him. But me personally, starting with the guy and seeing how he carried himself and preparing for games, it was big time, said Morris, who played with Dejean-Jones in 2014-15.UP NEXTIowa State hosts The Citadel on Sunday, and theres little doubt ball movement will be on the agenda in practice this week. The Cyclones had just 14 assists on 30 baskets.Mount St. Marys continues a brutal stretch of nine road games to start 2016-17 when it plays Minnesota on Wednesday.---More college basketball at www.collegebasketball.ap.org ' ' '
