Thursday Recap

West Indies made 311 for six from their innings with Shai Hope, Evin Lewis and Nicholas Pooran all coming up with the goods for the Men in Maroon.

Hope was granted an early reprieve after being dropped at mid-wicket by Rashid Khan on five and went on to bag his second half-century of the tournament.

The 21-year-old managed 77 off 92 balls to scoop the Player of the Match award:

Lewis and Pooran both managed 58, while Jason Holder smashed four sixes as the Windies added 111 runs from their final 10 overs:

Ikram Ali Khil and Rahmat Shah led the chase for Afghanistan, and the 18-year-old reached a landmark with his knock:

Chris Gayle, on potentially his last World Cup game, made a decisive contribution by dismissing Ikram for lbw, and Afghanistan also lost Najibullah Zadran two balls later.

Fabian Allen then produced a spectacular catch to seal victory:

The West Indies did just enough to pick up their second win of the World Cup, while Afghanistan came close again but were denied a first victory of the tournament.
