After posting back-to-back victories, Eoin Morgan-led England will aim to continue their winning momentum when they lock horns with Afghanistan in the 24th match of the International Cricket Council (ICC) World Cup 2019 at the Old Trafford Cricket Ground on Tuesday. The hosts are coming into the match on the back of crushing 108-run and eight-wicket wins over Bangladesh and West Indies, respectively.
