Sam Curran was the standout player in England's first match of the Super 12 in the ICC T20 World Cup 2022 with figures of 5/10. After winning the toss, Jos Buttler asked Afghanistan to bat, who could only manage 112 runs on the board owing to a collapse. England batters kept themselves composed despite losing occasional wickets. The low-scoring match at Perth witnessed some exceptional fielding from players in both teams, as Jos Buttler, Adil Rashid, Liam Livingstone, and Mohammad Nabi produced gems. Liam Livingstone finished as England's highest scorer (29 runs off 21 balls), whereas five Afghan bowlers took one wicket apiece. England will next take on Ireland on Wednesday and hope to keep their momentum going. Earlier on the day, New Zealand defeated defending champions Australia. Get ENG vs AFG highlights.
