  • Player of the Match
    Moeen Ali
That was all from the first match, but don't go anywhere as we have our second match to start. It's a clash between India and Bangladesh at Bengaluru. The match starts at 1930 IST. Do join us for that.
ASGHAR STANIKZAI says his team played very well. Admits they gave away runs towards the end. Adds they had their opportunity to chase this down. Is bewailed with the batting efforts of the top order. Feels they should have taken little responsibility.
EOIN MORGAN says they came for a win today and adds they need to play well now. Appreciates Afghanistan for the brand of cricket they displayed. Is disappointed with their efforts with the bat but appreciates the contributions from Willey and Ali. Further says, the game changed in the first six overs as his bowlers were brilliant. Ends by saying Afghanistan should be given credit as they are the strongest amongst the associate nations.
MOEEN ALI, MAN OF THE MATCH says they gave themselves some time. Adds that Afghanistan bowled really well and it was difficult to bat on. Further says he took some time and it paid off for them in the end. Informs Willey and he had decided to take the spinner in the 19th over. Admits he bowled slow and is disappointed with that but at the same time is happy as he still managed to scalp a crucial wicket. Ends by saying he is happy as they got the job done for the team.
Afghanistan did well with the leather but just couldn't do it with the willow. They showed poor communication when it came to running between the wickets and had two run outs in the innings. They were aggressive in batting but couldn't hold the momentum and they fumbled. It was only Shenwari and Shafiqullah who batted well for their side to keep them in the hunt, but since there was no good partnership or support from the other batsmen, the Afghans ended up with a nervy defeat. Afghanistan's hope to make it through ends here. But England with this win move to second place in the points table.
What a comeback by England in the second innings. They struggled in their batting but still managed to put a decent score on the board for their bowlers to defend. David Willey was outstanding today, both with the bat and ball. He contributed valuable partnership with Moeen Ali and also picked up two wickets. The leggie, Adil Rashid also bowled an impressive spell of three overs and scalped two wickets.
