AFG vs AUS Live Cricket Score

0.3 OUT! Ripper and the first one is gone for Afghanistan! The World Cup 2015's bowler of the tournament begins this World Cup with a bang! Mohammad Shahzad can do nothing about that ball, not many batsmen could. A full ball on middle, lands on a tuft of grass. The ball slightly swings in and when it moves like that on the pace it was bowled at, 143 kph, it is really going to be difficult for a new batsman. Shahzad is late to bring his bat down and by the time it does, the stumps are rattled. The umpires check for the no ball and Starc was really close to over-stepping there but luckily has not. MS has to depart. Perfect start for Australia! 0/1

1.2 OUT! Caught behind! The second one departs. Zazai follows his opening partner back home. An away-swinger bowled outside off, goes away from the left-hander. Hazrat looks to drive this away from the body but gets a nick on it. Carey takes a simple catch and that means it will be the second wicket in the second over of the game. The class of their pacers is showing here! 5/2

19.2 OUT! Australia get their fourth wicket. They were searching for this. Tossed up on off, Rahmat drives it uppishly towards covers but does not bother to keep it down. It goes towards Steve Smith who dives with both hands to his left and takes a stunner of a catch. 75/4

13.5 OUT! Stumped! The man with the hair-band has struck. Tossed up beautifully outside off, it is another googly outside off, Shahidi comes down the track but is beaten. The ball moves away, goes past the outside edge and Carey does the rest. He has to adjust due to the extra bounce and is a second late but manages to take the bails off. Shahidi though, tries to drag his foot back but struggles. Then he tries to get his bat down in time but is late. The square leg umpire himself raises his finger. 56/3

20.2 OUT! Communication breakdown and another wicket goes down. Afghanistan are in tatters now. Total shambles. Full and outside off, Nabi pushes it through the covers and sets off for a single. Naib responds but then looks at Smith diving to his left to stop the ball and stops. Now, Steve gets up in a flash and returns the ball to the keeper. Carey comes running in, collects the throw and disturbs the bails, with Nabi well short. 77/5

33.1 OUT! Stoinis strikes first ball on return! Good catch from Alex Carey. OUT! The dangerous partnership is broken. Stoinis bowls a short delivery, Naib looks to pull but gets a top edge. It goes towards Alex Carey who takes a comfortable catch. This partnership was taking the game away from Australia. It is a much-needed wicket for them. 160/6

33.5 OUT! Another catch for Carey and Stoinis has his second in the over. This is good stuff from Stoinis. He bowls a short of a length delivery, Zadran looks to pull but gets a top edge. It goes towards Carey again who takes the simplest of catches. Najibullah Zadran has thrown it away. This is poor stuff from Afghanistan. This partnership should have stayed till the end. 162/7

37.3 OUT! It turns out to be plumb. The slider from Zampa, landing around middle, Rashid got across and looked to sweep but missed. Was hit on the pads and umpire Aleem Dar did not waste any time in raising his finger. Rashid takes the review but it is just delaying the inevitable. Hawk Eye shows it to be hitting the middle stump. 205/9

35 OUT! Afghanistan are falling like a pack of cards here. Cummins bowls a good short ball on leg, Zadran looks to pull but gets an outside edge. It goes towards Alex Carey who takes his fourth catch of the day. Pat Cummins followed Dawlat Zadran there. 4 runs and a wicket from the over. A productive over for Australia. 166/8

38.2 OUT! Bowled! Lock, stock and barrel! Full and straight, Mujeeb backs a long way down the leg side and looks to go inside out but misses. The ball hits the timber and AFGHANISTAN ARE ALL OUT FOR 207. 207/10

16.2 OUT! First breakthrough for Afghanistan. Naib bowls a back of a hand slower one outside off, Finch lofts it over covers but does not get the distance on it. The bat turned in his hands. It goes to Mujeeb Ur Rahman in the deep who takes a comfortable catch. A wicket for Afghanistan at last as the 96-run opening stand is broken. 96/1

25 OUT! Rashid Khan gets his first wicket. Bowls a slider on middle, Khawaja looks to defend but gets hit on the pads. The bowler appeals and the umpire raises his finger. Usman Khawaja has a chat with Warner but does not go for the review. Hawk Eye shows that impact is in line and it is hitting the middle stump. 6 runs and a wicket from the over. 156/2

34.4 OUT! A wicket when the match is about to end. Tossed up outside off, Smith reaches out to drive but gets a thick outside edge which flies straight in the lap of Hazrat Zazai at short third man. Smith is not happy with himself while Afghanistan manage a smile. 205/3
