- Afghanistan coach Jonathan Trott said they could have given New Zealand a run for their money in Wednesday's World Cup game if they had not dropped several catches.
The result left Afghanistan ninth in the standings, just days after a stunning upset over England had fuelled their hopes of climbing up the table. "If you look at the statistics, unfortunately the side is right at the bottom with regards to catching. So that needs to improve and it's something we've worked really hard on in training, we just need to do it in games now."
Tom Latham rescued his team with a knock of 68 but he was dropped twice before reaching his fifty as the skipper combined with Glenn Phillips for a 144-run stand which helped them post 288-6.
