Drinks are on the field now - this is Afghanistan's match to lose now, but New Zealand will have to be wary about the net run-rate. This group also has West Indies and could end up in a 3-way fight for two Super-8 spots

Rashid Khan to M Bracewell, out Lbw!! There's another one for Rashid, Bracewell's given OUT LBW, he has no choice but to review. This looked straight and this looks OUT. Was tossed up on off and Santner went right back on the flick, he's beaten on the inside edge, he's very deep in the crease and the impact is in front of off, it's three reds on ball-tracking, crashing into the top of off and New Zealand have lost six. M Bracewell lbw b Rashid Khan 0(1)
Rashid Khan to M Bracewell, THATS OUT!! Lbw!!
