India have started off quietly in their chase of 160 against Afghanistan at the Asia Cup 2014. Earlier in the day, Afghanistan were bowled out for 159.

 

Ajinkya Rahane came in place of Rohit Sharma to open the batting. Interestingly, Mohammad Nabi opened the bowling with Shapoor Zadran starting from the other end.

 

There were a few fluent strokes in the fourth over as Rahane pulled one for three and Dhawan drove one for a four. The play will only last for about 30 minutes as the break is yet to happen.
