Afghanistan vs Australia, Champions Trophy LIVE score: AFG lose quick wickets, lose initiative

Afghanistan vs Australia LIVE Score: After winning the toss, Afghanistan faced an early setback, as Rahmanullah Gurbaz was dismissed for a duck. But then Atal and Ibrahim Zadran combined well to stitch a partnership. After a 50-run partnership, Zadran was out for 22. Despite losing regular wickets, Sediq Atal scored his 50 and took Afghanistan in a decent position. Unfortunately, he was out for 85.

The stage is set for an exciting clash as Afghanistan take on Australia at Lahore in the ICC Champions Trophy. The Pathans shocked everyone after beating England the other day. But now it is a do-or-die clash for Afghanistan who are seeking a spot in the semis. On the other hand, Australia will be targeting their second win of the tournament.
