Rahmat Shah's record 231* leads Afghanistan's fightback after ZIM's record total

India Today  

Afghanistan ended Day 3 of the first Test against Zimbabwe at Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo in a commanding position, reaching 425/2 at the close of play. This was due to a superb, unbeaten 361-run partnership between Rahmat Shah, who stayed unbeaten at 231*, and Hashmatullah Shahidi, who scored 141*, as Afghanistan fought back from a significant first-innings deficit. Rahmat Shah, who began the day on 58*, quickly reached his half-century, followed by a solid 100-run mark, and continued to dominate Zimbabwe's bowlers. His marathon knock broke Afghanistan’s previous highest Test score of 200* by Shahidi in 2021, making Rahmat’s 231* a new record for the country. His 141* was his second Test century, and together with Rahmat, the duo put on a record 361-run partnership—the highest for Afghanistan in Test cricket, surpassing the previous best of 307 runs between Shahidi and Asghar Afghan against Zimbabwe in 2021.
