John Michael Poole: Think it's safe to say Scotland have no chance here! Afghanistan have easily 30-40 runs too much.

Harry Cunningham: Scotland had done well to limit Afghanistan before those last few overs, then they let it slip. Game on?

So, can Scotland score 171 to get the monkey off their back and win their first ever game at an ICC World Twenty20 tournament (having failed to do so in 2007 and 2009)?

Find out in a minute or two and stick with us here. I hope you're enjoying these in-game highlights - they'll be on the BBC for all ICC tournaments until 2019.

In case you missed it... Defending champions Sri Lanka have had a change of T20 captain, just before the tournament. Lasith Malinga has stepped down, with Angelo Mathews (who already leads the Test and one-day sides) taking his place. It comes hours after Sri Lanka's sports minister sacked the selectors...

Afghanistan won toss

Mohammad Shahzad hit a very entertaining 61 from 39 balls, here's the highlights from his innings.

So, we had some big hitting, two half-centuries, a couple of comedic run-outs and some great fielding. Isn't that what T20's all about?

And who's your shilling on at this stage?

For those of you not familiar with the thinking behind Evans's run-out (pulling up a stump), here's the MCC (with the voice of Stephen Fry) to explain the Law in question...

Afghanistan batsman Mohammad Shahzad: "The wicket is very slow, but we have some good spinners and will hope to defend this total. I'm learning the helicopter shot from MS Dhoni."

Another shovel to long-on, only one possible this time. Dawlat finishes on three from two balls, Stanikzai on 55 from 50, and more importantly, Afghanistan on the landmark of 170 from 20 overs.

A single brings Dawlat on strike for the first time, he drills a two to long-on. Last ball coming up.

50 for Asghar Stanikzaipublished at 19.3 overs

Afg 166-5

Dawlat Zadran is the new batsman, but it's skipper Stanikzai taking every run possible here - a two brings up his fifty, and yet another ramp shot over the keeper brings him four. Davey is straying with his line here, another wide means this is a long over.

More good bowling from Sharif - but he's out of luck as Shafiqullah inside-edges past the keeper for four. Last ball of the over, he tries to sweep and the ball flies off a top edge over the keeper for four more.

The skipper said before the game he felt 150 was a good score. They're past that with an over to go.

Christopher Beck: Pulled Ireland out of the hat for the company sweepstake - lesson 1 on how to waste £2 is now complete.

Nothing wrong with the new bat as Shafiqullah smears a good yorker away for one, while Stanikzai angles the bat to guide a single to third man, but some good work on the rope by Evans denies a second.

Sharif to bowl the penultimate over, a fumble in the field allows Stanikzai a second run, and we think the Afghans have been doing plenty of "scoop" practice as once more, the skipper attempts a flick over fine leg. Shafiqullah wants a change of bat between deliveries.

Afg 142-4

Shafiqullah is the new batsman, but for now it's Evans to Stanikzai and he's bowling well, spearing the ball right into the blockhole for the Afghan captain to dig out. We've not had a boundary since the last ball of the 14th over. And there's nearly another wicket as Stanikzai heaves towards long-on and the ball bounces just in front of the fielder. Finally the boundary drought is ended as Shafiqullah belts the last ball of the over back past the bowler for four.
