England put the finishing touches to what was a weather-affected warm-up campaign with a morale-boosting win over Afghanistan last Monday. They didn’t need to be at their best to do so and there certainly looked to be plenty more to come from the team, but it was about getting the win and going into the competition with confidence in the ranks. Very few had Afghanistan picked to upset the odds and those who did never looked like securing a return on their investment. The final score read England 161-1 (17.3) against Afghanistan’s 160 all out (38.4).
