Afghanistan rode on an unbeaten knock of 74 runs by Hashmatullah Shahidi to pull off a three-wicket victory over Pakistan in a last-over thrilling World Cup warm-up match at County Ground, Bristol, on Friday. In the second warm-up game, South Africa defeated Sri Lanka by 87 runs at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff.

The World Cup 2019, to be played in a round-robin format, will be played from May 30 to July 14 in England and Wales. Hosts England will play South Africa in the World Cup 2019 opener at Kennington Oval, London.

Pakistan lose to Afghanistan in a World Cup warm-up match. In 1992 also they lost a warm-up match (to SL). Sarfraz still on track to be PM.
