Sri Lanka stay afloat, thanks to Dhananjaya de Silva

Dhananjaya de Silva has led the way for Sri Lanka here after a nervy first half of the chase. There were three overs where Sri Lanka pressed ahead and he was at the helm in that period. He finishes unbeaten on 66 as Sri Lanka finish the chase in the penultimate over.

Rashid breaks the stand...

The 54-run stand has ended as Asalanka looked to get adventurous against Rashid and found the long-on fielder. Sri Lanka are three down.

Dhananjaya shifts gears..

Sri Lanka got to the halfway stage at 68 for 1 but have quickly shifted gears in the two following overs. Rashid Khan had a change of ends which meant he was bowling to the right-handed Dhananjaya de Silva with the shorter leg side boundary. The allrounder took advantage and smashed a full delivery over deep midwicket for a six. 14 came off that over and then Mohammad Nabi conceded 12 in the following over.

Rashid Khan strikes after the PowerPlay

Just when Sri Lanka were starting to get a move on after a tough PowerPlay, Rashid Khan has come on and struck in his first over. Kusal Mendis top-edged his attempted sweep and the wicketkeeper took the catch after a bit of miscommunication. Sri Lanka are two down.

Ripper from Mujeeb Ur-Rahman!

Pathum Nissanka has been flummoxed here. He played down the wrong line against a carrom ball that gripped and turned away from him and hit the off-stumps. Just the kind of start Afghanistan needed.

AFG finish on 144 for 8

Wanindu Hasaranga ends with figures of 3 for 13 in 4 overs as Afghanistan have been kept down to a sub-150 total. It's not an easy pitch to bat on so some tight bowling early on can give Afghanistan hope here.

Afghanistan eye big finish

There have been no stand-out batting shows so far but Afghanistan are slowly and steadily building towards a strong finish. Sri Lanka have struck at regular intervals but the likes of Naib, Nabi and Najibullah Zadran have all made starts and small contributions in the quest towards a strong finish.

Three down!

Sri Lanka are slowly starting to regain control here. Ibrahim Zadran is gone, miscuing his big hit straight to Bhanuka Rajapaksa at mid-off. Lahiru Kumara gets his second wicket.

Usman Ghani falls!

He'd got Afghanistan going in the first half of the innings but Wanindu Hasaranga comes in and ends his stay. It was the googly that the opener didn't read and went for a slog sweep and got caught by Dasun Shanaka at deep midwicket.

Lahiru Kumara strikes!

A hint of inward movement for the pacer and he's disturbed the stumps of Rahmanullah Gurbaz. The Afghanistan opener was looking to hit through the line but the ball tailed in a tough and sneaked through the bat-pad gap.

Breezy AFG

Sri Lanka haven't hit the hard lengths enough on this Gabba pitch and are paying the price for it. There's no swing on offer and neither is the ball moving off the pitch so full length balls are getting duly dispatched. Gurbaz has arleady hit a beautiful flick off Pramod Madushan. They've reached 42/0 in 6 overs.

Teams

Sri Lanka: Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis(w), Dhananjaya de Silva, Charith Asalanka, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Dasun Shanaka(c), Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Theekshana, Pramod Madushan, Lahiru Kumara, Kasun Rajitha

Afghanistan: Rahmanullah Gurbaz(w), Usman Ghani, Ibrahim Zadran, Gulbadin Naib, Najibullah Zadran, Mohammad Nabi(c), Azmatullah Omarzai, Rashid Khan, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Fareed Ahmad Malik, Fazalhaq Farooqi

TOSS:Afghanistan win toss, opt to bat. One change for them with Gulbadin Naib replacing the injured Hazratullah Zazai. Sri Lanka bring in Madushan for Chamika Karunaratne

In case you missed it...

Afghanistan opener Hazratullah Zazai has been ruled out with an abdominal muscle strain. Gulbadin Naib, who was with the travelling reserves, has been brought in as the replacement.

Good news from the Gabba...

"Better news about rain from me today. It was cloudy and drizzling all morning. But it has stopped now and seems to be clearing up. Players out practising and nothing on the ground indicate any concerns. So looks like we should start on time," says our man, Ganesh C, at the venue.

Prelude - Mission survival for two teams

If rain permits, and that's a massive, massive IF in Brisbane today, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan would like to battle it out to stay alive. The loser is straightaway dumped out of the tournament, but the only incentive for the winner is that their campaign is just about alive. Life's tough in this group if you're Afghanistan and Sri Lanka, what with the likes of Australia, New Zealand and England already jostling for the two available SF spots. But never say never.

For either of these sides to qualify, the first and foremost criteria is for them to win both their remaining games. Apart from that, Sri Lanka need not more than one of New Zealand, Australia and Ireland to finish with 7 points and Afghanistan need not more than one of New Zealand, England and Ireland to finish with 7 points. Complicated route, no doubt.
