  1. Afg 50-2published at 7 overs

    A good over from Adam Zampa to peg Afghanistan back, just three runs off it.

    We have just seen a shot of the injured Aaron Finch nervously patrolling the outfield. He knows what is at stake.

    Here is the first wicket to fall as Pat Cummins takes a smart catch to dismiss Usman Ghani.

  3. Afg 47-2published at 6 overs

    Edged....but safe!

    An outside edge from Gulbadin Naib flies through the slips and wide of third man for four.

    Gulbadin punches the next ball through mid-off for three.

    Gurbaz's reprieve was short lived. That was a key wicket for Warner to pick up.

    Gurbaz c Warner b Richardson 30 (Afg 40-2)

    Not very! Rahmanullah Gurbaz has smacked the ball straight down David Warner's throat at mid-off.

    It's Green who has dropped it and he is not having a good day.

    Oh dear, Cameron Green.

    Rahmanullah Gurbaz has pulled the ball in the air towards mid-wicket but Green spills the catch running in from the boundary.

    How costly could that be?

  8. Afg 38-1published at 5 overs

    Afghanistan rotate the strike well as Marcus Stoinis comes into the attack.

    A great cut shot from Ibrahim Zadran perhaps deserved four but it was well stopped on the boundary and they can run two.

    Still, eight runs off it is keeping Afghanistan up with the run-rate.

    The wickets aren't coming quickly and neither are the balls.

    Afghanistan know they can be a real nuisance value for Australia.

  10. Afg 29-1published at 4 overs

    Frustration for Pat Cummins. After going for just three from his first five deliveries Rahmanullah Gurbaz edges the final ball fine and wide of third man for four.

  11. Postpublished at 10:13 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2022

    This was the first six of the innings from Rahmanullah Gurbaz.

    What a hit son.

    Different ball but same result! Well back of a length, went right across and got maximum value.

    Afg 22-1published at 3 overs

    Oof, Rahmanullah Gurbaz has done it again!

    This is outside off-stump but Gurbaz has reached for it and dragged the ball over square leg for another maximum.

    Brilliant shot.

    Ghani c Cummins b Hazlewood 2 (Afg 15-1)

    Breakthrough! Usman Ghani looks to smack it into the leg-side but instead top-edges the ball way into the night sky.

    Pat Cummins is on the run but watches it all the way and takes a decent catch ahead of David Warner, who was lurking nearby.

  17. Afg 14-0published at 1.4 overs

    Rahmanullah Gurbaz is more than fine to continue, he has just clubbed Pat Cummins down the ground and run three.

    Whatever was in the physio's magic spray has done the business.

  18. Postpublished at 10:02 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2022

    Rahmanullah Gurbaz is fine to continue after a bit of treatment.

  19. Postpublished at 10:01 Greenwich Mean Time 4 November 2022

    Hmmm, Rahmanullah Gurbaz doesn't look comfortable.

    After playing and missing a delivery from Pat Cummins he grimaces and immediately calls for the physio. It looks like his shoulder.
