Afghanistan struck early after wining the toss. Opener Gautam Gambhir had his middle-stumps out after an inside edge off his bat, yet again.

Zadran soon returned to remove Virender Sehwag and the Afghans were celebrating in what were unprecedented scenes on the cricket field.
Sehwag managed 8 to leave India on 22 for 2 in 4.1.

Yuvraj Singh was too cautious and had 18 off 20 balls before surrendering to Karim Sadiq's spin.

Virat Kohli was powerful in his approach, however. He hit another half-century - his sixth on the trot cutting across formats - to help steady India.

In reply, the Afghans were extremely confident in their approach. Mohammad Shahzad took on Indian bowling and hit three boundaries before falling to L Balaji (not in picture).
