I think that's six anywhere. We've seen a few big ones today but that's in the shake-up for the longest. It's cheered up the Afghans in the crowd.

Asghar Afghan, meanwhile, might be going to have a bit of a swing!

They were singing a few songs in that party stand when Eoin Morgan was hitting all those sixes. You wait until the Ashes, it will be rocking.
Hashmatullah 22, Afghan 2
Mark Wood has been really impressive in this tournament, hasn't he? In fact, he's been really impressive since returning to the Test team in West Indies.
His fifth over costs just two runs. He has 1-10.
Hashmatullah Shahidi doesn't look interested in having a go at getting these runs. He has 22 from 50.

I know it's a World Cup but when you've been bowled out so quickly and cheaply you've got to try and bat through and see where it takes you.
Target 398
The required run-rate is up over 12.50 now. Adil Rashid zips through another over. He will want to find some rhythm in this game to help him in the latter stages of this competition.
The Manchester crowd is awoken from its snooze with a loud rendition of Sweet Caroline. Classic.

Eoin Morgan since the India series last year, 19 innings and 1,024 runs, averaging 78.7 with a strike rate of 112. Prior to that in his previous 18 innings he had averaged just 23.
Thanks Amy. England are not finding this as straight-forward as they'd have hoped. They'd have wanted to wrap this up quickly.
Afghanistan aren't going to win this but they're sticking around.
Hello!
Mark Wood whistles down a bouncer that Hashmatullah tucks himself underneath, bat down low, and a single is all Afghanistan can snaffle from this over.
And with that, I'm done. Matthew Henry will take you through the closing stages.
Mark Wood is back.

This is the best Afghanistan have batted in the World Cup, they have played with decent control and played some nice strokes. It will give them a confidence boost to get to 280-300, that will be a good effort.
Need 294 more runs to win
New man Asghar Afghan sees off his first delivery from Adil Rashid.

Rashid hasn't bowled at his best in the World Cup but has just not had the luck. Rahmat will know that should have gone into the party stand, a nice juicy full toss, he probably got surprised by it, wasn't expecting such a bad ball. Maybe Rashid will pick up a four-for and get his confidence back.
Rahmat c Bairstow b Rashid 46 (Afg 104-3)
Sometimes, you can bowl an absolute beauty that will completely bamboozle a batsman.
And other times, you can bowl a rank full toss and watch it fly straight to the man at deep mid-wicket.
Guess which one Adil Rashid's just done? This is a horrible ball, one that deserved to be swatted into the stands, but Rahmat Shah has smashed it straight to the waiting Jonny Bairstow.

You don't get many streakers now, when I played there was almost one a game. Even at Lord's once I was out on the hook and one came flying past.
Eoin Morgan's look of distaste at that pitch invader was marvelous.
Anyway, here's Adil Rashid.

I think he was making sure the zinger bails were working.
Stokes 4-0-12-0
Well, he's got his clothes on. That's about all I can say about that.
He's managed to knock both sets of bails off and get to the boundary rope before being tackled by the security guards.
There's a pitch invader...

Eoin Morgan has already hit 22 sixes in the tournament from 182 balls - one every eight balls. He already has the second most hit in a tournament. Chris Gayle hit 26 in the last World Cup.
