Liam Livingstone has bowled brilliantly.
Rashid Khan cuts Liam Livingstone for four with another flashy stroke which goes through the air. He's here for the proverbial good time, rather than a long time.
Livingstone finishes with a more respectable 1-33 off his 10 overs.
Here's how fellow part-time spinner Joe Root dismissed Hashmatullah Shahidi a little while ago.
Rashid Khan drives expansively again to Mark Wood off the penultimate delivery of the over, and this time the ball flashes between gully and point.
That was close to finding the hands of an England fielder.

Remarkable. I've seen him hit helicopter shots for six first ball and this time, Rashid Khan plays a Babar Azam-eque cover drive for four.
A confident start from Rashid Khan as he peels off a delicious thump through the covers off his first ball from Mark Wood.
Wowzers. What a way to start your innings.

We spoke about pace being the X-factor and this is what Mark Wood brings to the team.
The ball was onto Nabi too quickly and it's a simple catch for Joe Root.

Mark Wood strikes. The pace was too much.
Nabi c Root b Wood 9 (Afg 190-6)
Mark Wood's extra pace does for Mohammad Nabi.
The ball climbs up off the pitch into the ribcage of the Afghanistan batter and he spoons it up of the splice of the bat, attempting to steer it to leg, and Joe Root gobbles up a comfortable catch at a deep gully.
England well on top now.

That's a relatively straightforward one but the ball just rolls up Jos Buttler's arm and by the time he gathers it, Ikram was back.
Henry Moeran
BBC Test Match Special commentator
It's a fumble from Jos Buttler. It should have been out.
Yes. Ikram Alikhil gets his foot back in time. A missed chance for Jos Buttler.
Jos Buttler makes a hash of a stumping opportunity.
Ikram Alikhil lurches forward out of his crease attempting to work the ball square, but is unable to make contact.
However, it's not a clean take from the England skipper behind the stumps and the ball ends up lodged in stomach area before he fumbles it and belatedly whips off the bails.
The umpires take a quick look.
A change of pace as the thrusting pace of Mark Wood is called upon by Jos Buttler.
The Durham fast bowler - encouragingly, given his history of injury problems, playing his third consecutive game for England at this World Cup - keeps tight lines to Ikram Alikhil and Mohammad Nabi.
Just three runs off Wood's fifth over.

The split between England's seamers and spinners today is quite telling.
15 overs by the pace bowlers and they've got a combined 0-111.
The spinners - Adil Rashid, Liam Livingstone and Joe Root - have taken 4-62 between them from 17.1 overs.

I ventured into the funny stand here, the one that looks like it’s collapsing, during the South Africa-Sri Lanka match earlier in the tournament.
It’s certainly different.
Five singles off Liam Livingstone's eighth over as Mohammad Nabi and Ikram Alikhil nudge and nurdle the spinner into the gaps.
Nabi is a bit of an old stager for Afghanistan. He's been on their journey from Division Five of the World Cricket League in 2008 through to playing in World Cups.
Steven Finn
Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special
Afghanistan need at least another 100 runs from here with England batting so deep, Sam Curran is carded to come in at nine.
Henry Moeran
BBC Test Match Special commentator
That's a nice shot for Nabi to get off the mark. Swept hard behind square.
Fair point, Dan. Although England's second-string spinners doing the business at the moment.
The vastly experienced Mohammad Nabi is the new batter at the crease and the 38-year-old goes down on one knee and slog-sweeps Joe Root over mid-wicket for four.
Nice shot to get off the mark.
