    Afghanistan's 272-8 is their highest score in their four games against India.

    It is a decent effort from Hashmatullah Shahidi's side but you would expect India to chase that.

    Much better performance in the batting department from Afghanistan, 272-8 is a reasonably good score against a strong India bowling line-up.

    Afg 272-8

    Naveen-ul-Haq is able to find one boundary off the final over but Mohammed Siraj escapes without too much damage.

    He finishes with 0-76 off nine overs though. Not his day.

    Mohammed Siraj, despite going for 70 from his first eight overs, is going to bowl the final six balls.

    Rashid Khan's innings was entertaining while it lasted.

  6. Afg 264-8published at 49 overs

    Jasprit Bumrah has been brilliant today. He finishes with 4-39 from his 10 overs.

    Here's how he removed Najibullah Zadran and Mohammad Nabi in his final spell.

    Rashid c Kuldeep b Bumrah 16 (Afg 261-8)

    Juggled but caught!

    Rashid Khan slices high into the covers and Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja hare after it from the cover boundary and point respectively.

    It is Kuldeep's catch and he drops it initially, but he takes it at full stretch on the second grab. Good catch in the end.

    Delhi is not a pitch where you traditionally go to the yorker too early. You need to keep using the surface for as long as possible.

  9. Afg 261-7published at 48 overs

    Rashid Khan keeps the strike with a single down the ground.

    Mohammad Siraj has figures of 0-70 from eight overs. A bad day.

    Uff. Shot.

    Rashid Khan stands tall and smacks Mohammad Siraj over the cover boundary for six.

    Superb power.

  11. Afg 253-7published at 47.3 overs

    Mohammad Siraj really hasn't bowled well today. He's given away far too many boundaries.

    This is another as Rashid Khan guides beautifully to the point fence.

    I'm not sure how much Mujeeb knew about that one. It came off the bat but was purely a defence mechanism to not get hurt.

  13. Afg 247-7published at 47 overs

    Back-to-back boundaries for Mujeeb Ur Rahman off Jasprit Bumrah.

    He smacks a straight drive away, before a nervy glance - almost more out of fear and protection for his hip - runs away fine.

    Here's how Hashmatullah Shahidi was trapped lbw by Kuldeep Yadav.

  15. Afg 238-7published at 46 overs

    Ravindra Jadeja rattles through another set of six.

    Three singles from it.

    Four overs remain. Can Afghanistan get up to 270-280?

    Afghanistan have lost three wickets for 10 runs.

    I think that review is more in hope than expectation.

    Immediate revenge for Jasprit Bumrah.

    He strikes Mohammad Nabi on the pads and Paul Reiffel raises his finger.

    Rashid Khan is a very difficult player to bowl to. We have seen some exceptional innings from him in the Indian Premier League. Afghanistan need some inspiration from him now.

  20. Afg 235-6published at 44.5 overs

    Rashid Khan is the new batter. He's more than capable with the bat, but tends to be quite hit and miss.

    He is up and running with a single, before Mohammad Nabi cuts to the point boundary for four.

    Nice shot.
