Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan became the leading run scorer in this year's World Cup so far as he made a confident start in yesterday's match against minnows Afghanistan. Shakib's unbeaten 31 took him to 456 runs in the tournament, while Mushfiqur Rahim was six not out in Bangladesh's 95-2 after 20 overs in Southampton. Afghanistan captain Gulbadin Naib won the toss and elected to bowl first after the start of play was delayed 10 minutes by light rain.
