That was brilliant.
To be fair, prior to this game Afghanistan had won two World Cup games ever. One chasing, one batting first.
So they just had a poor record!
They look bloody good now, though.
We watched episode 1 yesterday - found it intriguing, and we are looking forward to seeing how it continues.
The lack of Stephen Graham in this episode suggests that it is very much a stage-setter.
I have just read this review.

It doesn't sound great, does it?
Not sure if you're asking if it's any good, or suggesting it is!
It must be a pretty soulless experience being a Man City fan these days.
If you win just about every game (and they have now won their last 21 home games), and you hoover up the best players, where is the excitement? It’s just so humdrum.
I can understand why there is no atmosphere there.
India v New Zealand is being played at an absolutely beautiful ground.
At the start, Bumrah and Siraj were brilliant and New Zealand were 19-2. The sort of start that England would have collapsed to about 100 all out from.
Ravindra and Mitchell, though, are batting brilliantly. Now 91-2 after...
Just back. Needed a couple of pints to debrief after that.
Incredible. Theatrical. Just a superb gig by a band at the top of their powers.
To coin a phrase. Wow.
Just back from Resident, seeing the rather euphoric Barry Can’t Swim. It was great, and the shop was rocking.
Me and Mrs Mahone were comfortably the oldest people there.
Sounds good, I live near the bottom of Ditchling Road now. I will investigate.
I’m talking about all manner of trails, some linked to the South Downs Way (SDW).
Favourites include SDW to north Patcham past The Chatree, SDW to The Tighe, the ‘strada bianchi behind Woodingdean, down into...
When I lived in Ovingdean I used it as part of my commute into town every day.
It’s not unique though - there are so many beautiful off road routes around our city.
I feel for you Nick. Here’s hoping for a good recovery.
I have virtually given up road biking in the UK. I spend a lot of time in the French Pyrenees, and get out on the road extensively there, but it’s just not worth it here.
I still cycle a fair bit here though. I have very much embraced the...
I did have a bucket hat, the same as that…but that’s not me! Mine has Albion 1901 on the top, that one has 55.
I didn’t see him!
You’re right, it was lightweight on the musical side, but we saw great sets by The Murder Capital, Pulp, Young Fathers, Black MIDI amongst others.
It was fun.
I...
