England v Afghanistan

Wisden's review of England v Afghanistan

Afghanistan were '100%' set on winning - Rashid

Rashid Khan, Afghanistan's teenage legspinner, believed "100%" that his team were on course for victory over England after they had claimed six wickets in the first 10 overs of their contest at Delhi

England survive macho tussle

Taking on Afghanistan at their own game very nearly cost England, despite Eoin Morgan's claims to the contrary

Afghanistan don't yearn for sympathy, they yearn only for a win

Two impassioned screams for lbw, neither of them given, told the story of an Afghanistan side who are so close to winning, but just can't get over the line

'Beat anyone, but not us'

The match in which England nearly slipped on an Afghanistan banana skin, in tweets
