Yeah good crowd in today.

Fairly good score by Afghans but I think Eng should chase it down easily.. May be by 6 wkts. Dehli has been the highest scoring ground of the WC so far.

Hard to get in past Nabi, Rashid and Mujeeb I guess.

Afghanistan guaranteed to win this. Curran goes cheaply again

How on earth did Curran ever become the most expensive IPL signing of all time? Laughing all the way to the bank.

Curran AND Woakes in these sort of conditions is a highly embarrassing team selection. Where's Moeen? England look a shadow of their 2019 selves. Shows how much of an incredible leader Morgan was.

The guy is so over rated honestly. Just doesn't cut it at this level right now I'm afraid

Jeez the Afghans are about to win their first WC game against a full member side, that too the defending champs. Can only be good for cricket, the ODI format, and this tournament.

Might blow the table wide open for now (there will still need to be some more upsets along the way).

I've been critical of the Afghans since 2015 or so, but rooting for them to pull this off.
