England Win By 15 Runs Against Afghans

The English win is equal to the remarkable win against South Africa last week in Mumbai. They managed to survive by 15 runs thanks to the batting line up. Eoin Morgan’s men were able to pull of the game in their favor. They decided to bat on the slow pitch and were able to make just 142-7. The Afghans thought they had the match in their favor, but England showed a different result. There is one more game against Sri Lanka left in the group to be held on Saturday in Delhi. Though, the West Indies win on Friday that would result in a qualification. If SA wins in Nagpur, then the net run rate will come into play.
