    His last seven matches include a 151 against Pakistan and 119 against Sri Lanka. He's quite capable of getting a third century in eight matches, against a third different test nation. He made his debut at seventeen so he's got a lot of experience already. He's a joy to watch but isn't the only one. Nabi can hit a ball. So can Hashmatullah Shahidi with three half centuries in his last four innings. Then you have the spin twins of Khan and Ur Rahman who could both get in pretty much any test playing nation side.

    I’m hoping not.

    Would like to see that short boundary peppered.

    YJB a little unlucky there to be fair. It looked pretty leg side live, I’m not convinced rod tucker will be happy he gave that out. Barely clipping by a coat of varnish.

    Probably a moral victory for Afghanistan... despite the England Cricket team being responsible for the wrongs caused.

    Brook the key man now could be his chance to put his marker down in this world cup. Looked a step above all the other batters today.

    Taliban will be buying all the team an expensive gift if they beat us. We will only be able to afford to lose one more and we've got all the bigger teams still to play.
