1st over: Afghanistan 6-0 (Gurbaz 1, Ibrahim 5) With Marco Jansen rested, KG Rabada – playing his 100th ODI – takes the first over. And it’s a pretty good one. His first ball kicks from a length to beat Gurbaz, who then mishits a drive just over Bavuma at mid-off.
Ibrahim, fresh from an historic hundred against Australia, makes a more assured start, timing his first ball through the covers for four.
