England face minnows Afghanistan in a T20 World Cup Group 1 match at Optus Stadium in Perth on Saturday. England, who reached the semi-finals of tournament last year, head into the tournament with series wins over Pakistan and defending champions Australia. The 2010 champions, however, could get a tough competition, especially in the bowling department, with the likes of Rashid Khan and Afghanistan skipper Mohammad Nabi in top form. England suffered a big blow earlier this week when in-form pacer Reece Topley ruled out of the tournament. The Three Lions has roped in Tymal Mills as a like for like replacement for the lankey Topley. Chris Woakes' participation in the match is also a doubt, after reports suggesting that the all-rounder has a slight fitness issue.
