Afghanistan struggle after early wicket

June 18, 2019 19:26

Afg 13-1 (5 ovs) vs England 397-6 | Scorecard

Naib taps Woakes on the off-side for a single before Rahmat also takes one before the former is beaten as he flirts with a wide delivery outside the off-stump.

Archer bowls a good short ball to Rahmat, who does well to get out of the way before taking a quick run in the covers.

Naib clips the next ball through square leg for a couple and then blocks the next off the backfoot with a straight bat.

He tries to pull the last ball but is beaten as Afghanistan struggle to nine for one in four overs.

Rahmat gets the first boundary for Afghanistan as he slaps a short wide delivery from Woakes off the backfoot through the covers for a four.

He then hangs hit bat out and gets the regulation outside edge but Bairstow at first slip puts down an easy offering. It came at a good height and he had enough time to pouch it but ended up spilling it.

Afghanistan struggle to 13 for one in five overs.
