England’s Joe Root previews their ICC Cricket World Cup clash with Afghanistan

England have travelled to Delhi to continue their ICC Cricket World Cup campaign on Sunday as they take on Afghanistan in their third match of the tournament’s round robin stage. Jos Buttler’s men suffered the worst possible start to the competition by being hammered by New Zealand in their opening fixture.

They responded exceptionally, bouncing back with a 137-run victory over Bangladesh in Dharamsala last Tuesday. Dawid Malan was the outstanding player, scoring 140 off 107 to set up England’s innings becoming the oldest World Cup centurion in the process.

Afghanistan, meanwhile, are currently at the bottom of the points table with two losses from the two matches they have played. Follow all the latest live coverage of tomorrow’s match in the live blog below and check the latest odds here:
