Gurbaz is batting like Baz, Ibrahim a bit more sedate at the other end.

Its still early but if these two put on a large partnership, could make a fun run chase later under pressure. Sure, not squeaky bum time this early but it has potential.

ahh this is the pitch that SA scored 428 on.. so big totals quite possible

[bayimports]

and just like that, the game changes Afghanistan 123/3 with Gurbaz the destroyer now out and heading back to his Marvel universe

Eng chasing 285 to win. Should get home comfortably minor hiccup though at 3/1

England looking decidedly black crappish this world cup. Making a meal of this chase.

Got off to a flyer, but lost 4 wickets in the process. Now 117-5 after 20 and just absolutely wasted a review, plumb as fuck.

[bayimports]

They’re in real trouble now, will do well if they can get themselves out of this

154/6 England in trouble

[Bones]

Guys I'm really worried about the future FIL. Haven't heard from him since the black caps last lost and England played cricket today.

Might send him a picture of my best mate on the piss with Chris Martin last night to cheer him up.

We play Afghanistan next. Not sure if this result is good, to help ward off complacency or bad as it will have them full of confidence and self belief.

We've been applying ourselves pretty well this tournament so I think this probably makes the game a bit harder.
