Suryakumar Yadav was spilled by Ranjane on 15. Did he drop the world cup?

Axar goes, but India already have enough.

US not helped by Ali Khan going off injured.

Another US bowler off injured. Not having much luck.

Another wicket though.

NL scoring a few. If they'd caught Suryakumar, who knows.

yes, the US got a lot closer than I thought they would. Still a long way short though

183 to win for NZ. Afganistan have set a competitive target. Have a good chance to win this.

Mujeeb spin bamboozling the Kiwis. Two wickets in two successive balls. Noor alongside Rashid and Mujeeb would have been a top class wicket taking spin attack.

44/2 in 5 overs. NZ managed to get some partnership after being 14/2.

The spin attack of Afghanistan is the strongest point of their bowling attack. Not easy to score runs against Rashid and Mujeeb. How NZ play remaining overs of spin when field is spread out after power-play will be the key imo.

Looks like NZ have gone in with the wrong balance in their attack. Afg should defend that total.

I think it's going to be close. It's a high scoring stadium - 180 is no more than par IMO.
