India 466-9 (103 ovs) vs Afghanistan | Scorecard

Leg-spinner Rashid comes back as Ishant and Umesh gets off the mark with a single each.

In the next over, Wafadar drops short as Umesh pulls it over midwicket for a four before he makes room and slashes a short ball from the pacer over the covers to bring up India's 450.

Wafadar bowls a good bouncer which comes in as Umesh does well to fend it with his gloves before he heaves the next ball over midwicket for a six.

He drives the next ball down to long-on for one before Ishant edges the last ball to the right of a diving wicketkeeper for a four as 21 come from the over.

In the next over, Umesh slog sweeps Rashid over midwicket but just for a single. Ishant gets a good stride forward before he tries to sweep but misses and is hit on the pads.

The umpire is not interested as Afghanistan decide to take the review but to no avail as the impact is well outside the line of off-stump.

Umesh also gets a lifeline as he top edges the sweep. The fielder Rahmat Shah takes the catch but the momentum carries him over the ropes and he manages to lob the ball back and keep it down to just one despite not being able to take the catch.
