It allows them to clear hurdles. But few expected the sheer force gurbaz unleashed in the opening overs, he hammered englands bowlers unsparing, unsettling time to change direction. And thats adil rashids area, their lead spinner, their match turner with skill and the Helping Hands of his captain, jos buttler, he halted the afghan charge. Others followed along his curving path, notablyjoe root. England back on top. But the sun had not yet set on afghanistan, finishing as they started. They smashed themselves up to 284, a total far more than it might have been. So in the Delhi Darkness they had something to conjure with. Get root early and you know youre in business. Getjos buttler too. Well, they tell you the significance. England four down nearly 200 short, more wickets fell. Harry brook was left trying to steer through the crisis, but without support and against an increasingly irresistible force. Yeah the magic mujeeb knew. Everyone knew this was happening. England have time to recover. But this was about afghanistan. 20 years ago, they didnt have a proper National Team. Today they beat the World Champions by 69 runs. No wonder they believe. Patrick gearey, bbc news. At no time really, i think, when we were batting did we think we were running away with the game. We thought we had a decent total, but we had to bowl well and field well and the guys did that. So i think its very pleasing and theres a lot of confidence that will hopefully come from this when competing against the bigger nations, and itll have a knock on effect for all the other games, but not only in this world cup, but for the future as well. Just what afghanistan cricket can achieve. Its a big setback, obviously. You know, before the tournament starts, you have a different idea of how the first three games would pan out. You know, weve got to show a lot of character, a lot of resilience within the team and most of all, a lot of belief. You know, theres a lot of excellent players in there and we havent played well enough today, but we must keep that belief.

Norway, who last appeared in a major tournament back in euro 2000 and their star striker erling haaland, can now only potentially qualify through the play offs. Turkey also made it by thrashing visitors latvia 4 0 on sunday to make sure that they will finish in the top two in their group. Thats group d and in that same group, wales beat croatia to reignite their hopes of qualifying automatically. Belgium head coach Domenico Tedesco says the National Team have achieved a big target with qualification for the euro finals, and especially so given the countrys so called golden generation of players have mainly retired now. Belgium were one of the first to guarantee a place in germany after a 3 2 victory against austria on friday, and their next match is against sweden on monday. My State Of Mind is that we want to be first in this group and we want to answer this question already tomorrow when to win this game in front of our fans with a good mood, with a good flow. This is the first thing. And then in november we will see. I dont have this camp now in my completely focus, but if you ask me now, we have nothing to, how can i say, no presence to give .

Head to bbc. Com or indeed bbc. Co. Uk if youre in the uk. But for me in the team, thats it for now. Goodbye. Hello. There are big changes happening weatherwise again this week, but at the moment, still feeling very much like autumn. Temperatures below the seasonal average, lots of dry weather, blue sky and sunshine, pretty Autumn Colours over the weekend and High Pressure still dominates as we head through monday. It will push ever so slowly further eastwards, eventually allowing low Pressure Systems to push in from the southwest. Its another chilly start to the day on monday, but a patchy frost again possible across england and wales in particular. Temperatures a little milder across Northern Ireland and scotland with more in the way of cloud. But that cloud will tend to break up, i think, as the day wears on. So some brightness and sunshine emerging, especially through the afternoon. Maybe a few isolated showers. Well see some showers towards north sea facing coasts for england and wales. Its a sunnier start to the day, but more cloud will build through the afternoon. Temperatures likely to peak again a little below the seasonal average, 11 to 14 degrees celsius. Its still windy across the Northern Isles on monday and it will turn windier towards these Channel Coasts too, as we head towards the end of the day. Why . Well, this area of low pressure pulls in from the southwest. Its going to turn pretty unsettled for much of the rest of the week. But on tuesday, again, it is largely dry, quite blustery, with a brisk easterly wind, especially towards the south therell be outbreaks of rain edging into parts of cornwall, western wales, i think by the time we get to the end of the day. Further north, largely dry, top temperatures peaking between 11 and 15 degrees celsius, starting to draw some milder air in along with these weather fronts. And theyre due to push further northwards and eastwards as we head throughout the night on tuesday and into wednesday. So turning much more unsettled across the border, brisk easterly to south easterly wind blowing. Therell be outbreaks of rain. Some of that rain likely to be heavy at times, especially across the south west of england, wales, those showers pushing up through to parts of scotland as well. But in the milderfeeling air, temperatures will rise as high as perhaps 18 or 19 degrees celsius across the south west and the channel islands. But then the focus of that rain will change as we head through thursday and friday. And its quite likely that well see some of the heaviest downpours across central and eastern areas of scotland. And there are already met Office Weather warnings in force. There could be some exceptionally heavy rain in these areas. Severe gales, too, towards the east coast. Heres the outlook for our capital cities, turning milder but much more unsettled. Bye bye. Welcome to newsday, reporting live from singapore, im arunoday mukharji. The headlines.
