Arshdeep Singh: Feels good. Good to see new faces stepping up and taking wickets. I'm enjoying what happens on and off the field and ensuring not having regrets of not putting 100%. (Chat during hat-trick) No idea I was on a hat-trick, so there was no chat. Now I regret it. We're looking to follow what's best for the team. Results will follow. Gurnoor and Prince are confident. They're ready to go and hungry for success and take wickets for fun.
AE: "The last 7 wickets fell for 104 in AFG innings that's 60 more than India. Clearly showing how India botched since Gills wicket."
9:22pm: All smiles in the India camp. That was very comfortable. They batted out Afghanistan and the chase never took off. Gurbaz started well but fell in the forties. Their top-four batters did well but didn't go big... or fast in a 400-plus chase. Prince overstepped and missed a wicket. Gurnoor then took over. Kuldeep was great but had no wickets to show for. Washington was economical.
