    Afghanistan have gone flat.

  3. Afg 57-4

    The National Bank Stadium black cat is back on the outfield and is scuttling about just behind Wiaan Mulder as he is poised to deliver.

    Azmat Omarzai does not seem too bothered, mind.

    They need to do what Bangladesh did yesterday. Even if they continue to bat under the required run-rate, as long as they build a platform they're in a better position.

    What can Afghanistan do here.

  6. Afg 56-4

    Lungi Ngidi continues for South Africa.

    Azmat Omarzai latches on to a rare scoring opportunity as he gets off the mark with a waspish cut through the covers.

    The Afghanistan fans in the crowd seem to be having a good time regardless of the way the scoreboard looks.

    This is starting to feel like another one-sided game.

    How about the Kiwi, Two-Metre Peter Fulton…?

    I was really impressed with how Afghanistan played at the start of the innings. They found the gaps and rotated the strike well. Since Rahmanullah Gurbaz was out they've been very quiet.

  10. Afg 51-4

    Wiaan Mulder finishes off his over after drinks with a wide and dot.

    Fastest wicket-taking deliveries in Champions Trophy matches:

    • 94.07mph - Brett Lee vs Grant Elliott, 2009
    • 91.96mph - Kagiso Rabada vs Ibrahim Zadran, Today

  12. Afghanistan 50-4 at drinks

    The players hydrate at the fall of the wicket.

    Incidentally, Kagiso Rabada's dismissal of Ibrahim Zadran earlier was quick, but perhaps we didn't realise just how quick at the time.

    Hashmat really nailed that, he was looking at his bat after because he hit it right in the middle. Really good effort by Bavuma.

    Hashmat c Bavuma b Mulder 0 (Afg 50-4)

    It's falling apart for Afghanistan here.

    Hashmat Shahidi whacks a delivery from Wiaan Mulder straight into the hands of Temba Bavuma at mid-on. A fine take by the South Africa captain as that came quickly.

    Terrific work on the field, Jansen is still very much on his toes. That was a very difficult over for Sediq.

  16. Henry Moeran
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Never run on a misfiled. Rabada doesn't get the wicket to his name but the pressure that was build up by his discipline and consistent bowling led to it.

    WICKET

    Sediq run out (Jansen) 16 (Afg 50-3)

    Sediq Atal is back on his way to the pavilion after the TV replays show he was well short of his ground despite diving. He took a risky single after striking the ball to mid-on.

    Superb work from Marco Jansen, who swoops and gathers the ball with one hand and hits the stumps with his shy. Great work from the big man.

  18. Umpire review

    Sediqullah Atal is in trouble after running to the non-striker's end following brilliant work by Marco Jansen.

  19. Henry Moeran
    Test Match Special commentator on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Sediq seems to have a bat made of Swiss cheese at the moment, I don't know how he keeps missing it.

  20. Aatif Nawaz
    BBC Test Match Special commentator on on BBC Radio 5 Sports Extra

    Sediq is really struggling to line up against Rabada.
