Scotland were thrashed by 130 runs by Afghanistan in their first Super 12 match at the Men's T20 World Cup.
In their first appearance at this stage of the tournament, Scotland disintegrated as they were bowled out for 60 in 10.2 overs, chasing 191 in Sharjah.
Mujeeb Ur Rahman bamboozled the Scotland batters, taking 5-20, including three in the fourth over to effectively end hope of a successful chase.
Rashid Khan claimed 4-9 as Afghanistan's electrifying spin attack ran riot.
The Scotland bowlers were earlier powerless to stop Afghanistan racking up 190-4, the highest score of this World Cup.
Afghanistan hit 11 sixes, including some huge hits out of the ground, with Najibullah Zadran smashing 59 from 34 balls, Rahmanullah Gurbaz 46 from 37 and Hazratullah Zazai 44 from 30.
It reaffirmed the view that Afghanistan could be a dangerous side in this tournament, while it was a chastening defeat for Scotland - the third heaviest at a T20 World Cup in terms of runs.
They face Namibia in Abu Dhabi on Wednesday at 15:00 BST before the unenviable task of playing New Zealand, India and Pakistan in their remaining Group 2 fixtures.
