Embattled Afghanistan face an uphill task against England

England have lost one of their matches against Pakistan. However, with three wins in four matches, England have booked a spot in the semis. Eoin Morgan’s and Jason Roy’s injuries are a matter for the team but they would try to push their campaign forward.

James Vince has been called in as a replacement and he would be opening with Jonny Bairstow. He has opened in all eight ODI innings he has played, at an average of 29 with a century to his name.

Afghanistan, on the other hand, have been in the eyestorm of controversies before the start of the World Cup. The team that was touted as one of the underdogs of the tournament have failed to secure a single win yet.
