England will take on Afghanistan in the ICC ODI World Cup at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday.
England started its World Cup title defence on the wrong foot, crashing to a big defeat to New Zealand in the tournament opener.
But Jos Buttler’s side has bounced back with a win over Bangladesh and will look to add two more points against Afghanistan, a side it has never lost to in the format.
