Today’s Cricket Match Update: England vs Afghanistan, the 13th fixture of the 2023 Cricket World Cup, is currently underway at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi. The England-Afghanistan clash has been a total blockbuster thus far, with the Afghans currently possessing a genuine opportunity to register an upset. Losing the toss, batting first, Afghanistan posted a formidable 284-run total on the board in the face of a quality English bowling attack.

It was opening batter Rehmanullah Gurbaz who starred for Afghanistan with a sublime 80-run knock. Hammering as many as 4 sixes, Gurbaz manhandled England bowlers amid his 57-ball stay at the crease in Delhi. The Shahidi-led side, moreover, has reduced England to 173 for 8 in the marathon run chase of 285. As things stand, the Englishmen require well over 100 runs off 90 deliveries with only two wickets in hand.

Today’s Cricket Match Update: Sam Curran Shoves The Cameraman In Frustration

Sam Curran, the premier England fast bowler, encountered a horrible day at the office in the Afghanistan clash. Curran went for 46 runs in the 4 overs he bowled in Delhi with no wicket to his name. The left-handed speedster conceded a whopping 20 runs during the 10th over of Afghanistan’s innings, which eventually triggered an outrageous action from him.

After the eventful 20-run over, fielding near the boundary rope, Sam Curran was seen pushing a cameraman away while the former was trying to take a closeup visual of him. The animated episode was televised and Curran appeared frustrated by the cameraman’s attempt to pan the camera too close to his face. The 25-year-old is now facing a lot of heat on social media amid the fixture in Delhi which is yet to conclude.

Here’s what Liam Livingstone told the host broadcasters after the first innings in Delhi;

“Looked like a good pitch first up. I think the reason we bowled first was hoping the dew would come in and make it a bit better the second time out. It was a bit harder against spin but a good pitch overall.”
