Gonna be an absolute hammering and do out run rate no good. Going to need to win every game remaining to stand a chance of going through
no they have given up. they've done what a side with no faith in their leadership would do. they have gone out there knowing they couldn't chase 400.
India showed how to win by bowling first. They restricted NZ to below 300 and then just about got there. Pakistan have won the toss and chosen to bat based on the pitch conditions and Afghanistan have confirmed they would have done the same. Target is 300.
282/7 from pakistan. not quite what they would have wanted, not really as low as Afghanistan would like,
It ought to be but we've seen a lot of scores close to it. Really its all about the first stint of bowling and what wickets get taken. Afghanistan still have a shot at anything <300.
great start for the taliban. This really looks like pakistan might be in trouble unless they change the script.
Today is the day. England batting first this time. 35/0 4.4 overs. Sri lanka have won one game out of 4 which was netherlands who are losing every game. if england can't win this well they might as well give up. line up.
