...
That's it from me here. But there's another game on tonight and it is between India and Bangladesh. So don't forget to catch that.
...
For his all-round performance, Moeen Ali is the Man of the Match.
...
The early loss of Shahzad was crucial but the flurry of wickets to the spinners meant it was always going to be too difficult. In the end it was Hamza's last over, which went for 25 runs that was the big difference between the two sides.
...
19.6 Stokes to Shafaq, FOUR, that was dull and driven past cover for a boundary but England win by 15 runs.
...
19.5 Stokes to Shafaq, no run, walks across his stumps and tries to scoop but only succeeds in getting it to square leg.
...
19.4 Stokes to Shafaq, no run, that was a perfect wide yorker and the batsman digs it out back to the bowler.
...
19.3 Stokes to Shafaq, no run, in the slot and excellent fielding from Buttler ensures the inside-edge doesn't go for four.
...
19.2 Stokes to Shafaq, no run, short ball and that drops harmlessly into the leg side but the crucial thing is he is still on stirke.
...
There is a kit at mid-wicket and Stokes is stopped as he is ready to deliver. The umpires gives the kite to Billings.
...
19.1 Stokes to Shafaq, FOUR, that was wide and edged to third man. That was the start they needed. That was a wild swing but the neccessary result.
...
Ben Stokes has the ball. Can he defend 24?
...
24 needed off the last over.
...
18.6 Jordan to Shafaq, 1 run, full toss and drilled on the bounce to Stokes at long-on.
...
18.5 Jordan to Shafaq, no run, in the slot but hit straight to the fielder at mid-off. A yard either side and that was four.
...
25 needed off 8 balls. There is hope again for the Afghans.
...
18.4 Jordan to Shafaq, SIX, full toss and this one is lofted way over the bowler's head. This is the six that they needed.
...
18.3 Jordan to Shafaq, FOUR, that was a full toss and hit past the bowler for a boundary.
...
18.2 Jordan to Shafaq, no run, perfect yorker and the batsman can do nothing with it.
...
Shapoor Zadran comes to the crease but it will be Shafaq on strike.
...
18.1 Jordan to Shafaq, RUN-OUT, that was a run-out in slow-motion and England are a wicket away from victory. Drilled to mid-wicket and the fielder threw the ball to Jordan but he missed the ball but the batsman was so far behind that he had another chance and whipped the bails off this time.
...
35 needed off the last two overs.
...
17.6 Willey to Hamza, no run, there was a hint of reverse and the non-striker turns down the single.
...
17.5 Willey to Shafaq, 1 run, walks down the track and bunts a yorker to long-off.
...
17.4 Willey to Shafaq, no run, swing and a miss. Goes for the big heave-ho but fails to make any contact with the ball. It was in the slot but the batsman missed out.
