Now Rabada is bowled by Wahab.
S. Africa 8/239 (46.5).
Pakistan are taking a lot of wickets bowled now (4 so far), which is good because it bypasses their incompetent fielders, who've dropped half a dozen catches.
--------------------------
63 runs needed from the last 2 overs.
Ngidi is bowled by Wahab.
9/246 (48.2). That's 5 wickets bowled in this innings now. What is the ODI record?
--------------------------

S. Africa's remaining matches will be meaningless for them.

Back on England's batting:
The root of all runs
https://www.theage.com.au/sport/cricket ... 5207a.html
'Root, though, is seen as the "glue" in England's top-order and a man Australian bowling coach Adam Griffith said was a priority dismissal.
"Yeah I think so and also he’s hard to tie down now, he can rotate the strike really well so finding a way through that," he said.
...
... Michael Vaughan said Root was the "key to the whole batting unit" and a man in the "Virat Kohli-Kane Williamson mould".
...
The burning question about England is whether their aggressive style could ultimately be a weakness. They struggle to adapt when the conditions require, as Nasser Hussain has noted.'

Afghanistan win toss, field.

Das goes. Another disputed catch. The soft signal was out.
1/23 (4.2).
Odds: Bangladesh 66%, Afghanistan 34%.

Nabi bowls Tamim Iqbal. Tamim went back and made room...
2/82 (17).

Bangladesh 2/132 (25).
Shakib 48* (57) is back ahead of Warner as the highest run-scorer in this WC.
Odds: Bangladesh 81%, Afghanistan 19%.
Line: 288.5.
The British commentators praise the way Shakib manoeuvres the field.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There were 11 dot balls in a row just then.
The commentators suggest the rule of thumb "Two maidens in a row create a wicket".
It's said to work at least in club cricket.

Shakib Al Hasan takes two wickets in three balls!
Afghanistan 3/104 (28.1).
4/104 (28.3).
At the end of the over, Shakib has 3/6 (5).
RRR is heading towards 8. I think this game's over now.
Odds: Bangladesh 93%, Afghanistan 7%.
..........................................................
Shakib gets another wicket. Asghar Afghan holes out.
5/117 (32.2).
Shakib has 4/8 (6.2). The player of the tournament so far.
Shakib is the 9th player to score a 50 and take 4 wickets in the one WC match.
Odds: Bangladesh 97%, Afghanistan 3%.
----------------------------------------------
And now a run out -- at the non-striker's end, after a turned-down LBW appeal against the other batsman on strike.
6/132 (35.1).
----------------------------------------------
Final result: Afghanistan all out 200 (47). Bangladesh won by 62 runs.
POTM Shakib Al Hasan ended with 5/29 (10).
cricinfo tell us he's the third player (following Kapil Dev & Yuvraj Singh) to make a century and take a five-for in the same World Cup tournament, and the second player (following Yuvraj) to get a fifty and five-for in the same WC match.
