Just three singles follow the boundary in the Adil Rashid over but another misfield shows that England are still a long, long way short of the standards they set for themselves in the field.
Mark Wood will bowl the next over.

BBC Sport in DelhiThere are a lot of Afghanistan fans in the ground now and they make a real racket as Rahmanullah Gurbaz goes to his fifty. Pressure on England.

That's fifty for Rahmanullah Gurbaz!
He gets there from 33 balls with a hard sweep that goes just behind square for four, superbly played.
England have had no answer to his powerplay stroke-play.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialEngland are changing they pace, they realise they cannot bowl the same pace all of the time. Afghanistan are just throwing their hands at everything through the line. It is a significant start for Afghanistan.

The powerplay ends with a boundary-free over from Reece Topley.
It's the first boundary-less over since the fourth but what a start this has been for Afghanistan.
England are going to turn to spin now with Adil Rashid set to bowl the next.

This is England's pitch-map so far.
Have they been too short and then too full?
The black dots are the boundaries, with the grey other scoring shots.

James Gulleford: Oh Jos, why put the opposition in! England should be batting and piling up the runs!
John Elliott: Our bowling isn’t even close to good enough to win this World Cup. Not even in the top five.
Chris Murtagh: Ominously for England is once Gurbaz gets past 30, he tends to go on and score big.

A TV camera gets up very close to Sam Curran on the boundary and he pushes it away. A sign of England's frustrations.

Steven Finn
Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialIt is so flat, the ball has just gone beyond the perimeter fence. It is has gone so hard and so flat for six.
Afg 75-0published at 9 overs
Swung over the leg side for six!
The punishment continues for Sam Curran as Rahmanullah Gurbaz moves to 46 from 29 balls.
Just too short from Curran and Gurbaz pulls it flat but comfortably over the rope. It's 20 from the over.

BBC Test Match Special commentatorThat is a good shot, wow. Cracked through the covers.
Afg 67-0published at 8.4 overs
Boundaries galore for Afghanistan!
Rahmunallah Gurbaz nails a drive through the covers for four before clipping a leg-side delivery from Sam Curran down to fine leg for four more.
England are all over the place.

It's been a very poor start from England but I'd personally wait longer than eight overs before completing writing off the tournament.
They won convincingly in the last game and Matthew Mott has taken England to a T20 World Cup win, Richard...
Anyway, they've been less than impressive so far today so I'll pipe down.

England can book their flight home before the semis, awful cricket, poor bowling and poor fielding! Players attitude needs questioning?!

Pathetic again from England.

Reece Topley may have found the answer to the question: how do you slow Afghanistan down on this pitch?
Slower balls, it seems. He keeps Rahmanullah Gurbaz quiet for the remainder of the over by using a couple of his variations.
An off-cutter seemed to grip a bit so that is something to keep an eye on.
Afg 55-0published at 7.1 overs
Rahmanullah Gurbaz goes again!
Just a hint of width from Reece Topley and the Afghanistan opener drills the ball away square for yet another boundary.
England just cannot find any control for more than a few deliveries at a time.
