Southampton, June 23 (CRICKETNMORE):  Indian pace bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah was once again at his menacing best as he helped the Men in Blue beat Afghanistan in a tense World Cup match that went all the way down to the wire in Southampton.

With 32 needed off the last four overs, Afghanistan had a very good chance of upsetting the Men in Blue and consigning India to their first defeat of the tournament on Saturday. However, Bumrah's two fine overs, which saw the pacer hit the yorker length consistently, and Shami's hat-trick when 12 were needed off the last five balls took India over the line.
