    I'm surprised there is not more than one slip in with such a monumental total to defend.

  3. Afg 62-2

    Mark Wood finds the outside edge of Hashmatullah Shahidi's bat - and it beats a flailing Chris Woakes on the third man boundary for four!

    Wood shows his displeasure with a delivery that zips past Hashmatullah's outside edge.

  4. How's stat?!

    Gulbadin's 37 took him to 100 runs for the tournament, the first Afghanistan batsman to reach that landmark.

  5. Afg 57-2

    Moeen Ali absolutely flies through his overs.

    A series of singles are all that come off this latest one, with Hashmatullah Shahidi getting off the mark with a flick off his legs.

  6. Gulbadin Naib gave it a fair old thwack earlier today.

  7. Afg 53-2

    Target 398

    Mark Wood: 1-0-2-1.

    It's a terrific catch for the athleticism of Buttler. He obviously has got the gloves on but you had to be sprinting to get there and he had to run back. He is a fine athlete and he had to go at full throttle.

    Poor old Shahzad wouldn't have got that one - that was an athlete's catch as much as a wicketkeeper's catch.

    WICKET

    Gulbadin c Buttler b Wood 37 (Afg 52-2)

    Oh, what a take!

    Jos Buttler has gone haring after this like he's Usain Bolt. Gulbadin Naib had a full-blooded swing at Mark Wood's latest delivery but all he could do was get a top edge up into the air. Buttler had to go after it and dived at short fine leg to get two hands safely underneath the ball. Magnificent work.

  10. Mark Wood time!

    Morgan likes Woakes and Archer to bowl the first 10 overs and then where does he go? I am salivating at the prospect of Rashid to Gulbadin because Gulbadin might try to repeat what happened to his own bowling.

  12. Afg 51-1

    Nothing extravagant from Moeen Ali first up. He's worked into the gaps by Rahmat Shah and Gulbadin Naib, who has quietened down a touch after that big-hitting start.

  13. Chris Woakes is off and Moeen Ali is on.

    Woakes should have had a wicket, but this happened...

    We have two different games going on, when Rahmat is on it resembles a Test match and then everything changes for Gulbadin.

  15. Afg 48-1

    Target 398

    Rahmat Shah rolls his wrists into a pull shot to Jofra Archer, but it clogs in the pitch and Afghanistan will get just three for it.

  16. It's on!

    Afghanistan are ahead of England at this stage of the match.

    (England are the ones in blue...)

  17. Afg 44-1

    Four more!

    This is short and wide from Chris Woakes and Gulbadin frees his arms, hoicking the ball over point and to the boundary.

  18. Afg 39-1

    Short, sitting up - and hammered for four by Gulbadin Naib!

    Maybe not that length on this pitch, Chris...

    I'm currently supposed to be teaching a lesson on West Germany but have spent 5 minutes talking about the wonders of Morgan to my sixth formers. I also told them about my failed attempts to get on the live text and they reckon this one won't get put on either...

  20. Afg 35-1

    The squeeze is on.

    Gulbadin Naib works a single off his pads from the first ball of the over, but that's the only run Jofra Archer gives up.
