Angelo Matthews became the 1st player to be time out in Intenational cricket.
I expect Shakib to get some stick over the appeal. There will be the usual calls that this is not in the spirit of the game. It's a law and I suspect that appeals of this nature could be upheld in every match. I doubt many are ready to face a ball inside of the 2 minutes after a dismissal.

Game on as Afghanistan post 291-5 against Australia. A class unbeaten century from Ibrahim Zadran, contributions throughout and Rashid Khan played a gem of an innings it 35 from 18 balls. Hazelwood was the pick of the bowlers with 2-39.
91-7 in the 19th, 293-7 (46.5) Australia won by 7 wickets

Afghanistan will feel this for a long time I believe! They had Aussies on toast, but as always - aside from Maxwell getting his fair share of luck - the old adage, dropped catches lose matches, was never more apt! Having said all that, G Maxwell is a phenom! Scary to think he was on one leg in effect too! He can write his own cheque now (as if he couldn't before) for his services. They will be queuing up to get his signature!

^^ Mujeeb has a history of dropping the simplest of catches. A star bowler since the age of 16, he's represented over 20 teams and played over 400 games, you'd expect that someone would've improved his very poor fielding techniques by now.

^^ Jonathan Trott looked so forlorn at the end. 'How the F--- could we lose that??' look on his face. They will never have such an opportunity to turn Australia over for a long time I would say! really not sure they did too much wrong (catches as previously mentioned). Maybe missed their lengths on occasion, but all the plaudits go to Maxwell. Could England etc have stopped him in this mood??

And I thought that Maxwell was past it.
But he rode his luck at the start of his innings and started swinging, often (with his injury) just on one leg.

I'm not watching the England v Netherlands match but believe that they have brought Brook and Atkinson.
England elected to bat and are currently 20 -0 off 2 overs.

Brook had to play, all batters are out of form Malan aside. Livingstone was actually bowling well but not enough to keep him in the side. Wood has been very fast but has gone for a lot of runs and very few wickets. Atkinson had one good game and has been ignored. The selectors have shown faith in experienced players, and they haven't repaid them.

Losing to Netherlands will be WC humiliation complete
