Matt Dusk sings Sinatra in Halifax/PEI/Moncton | SaltWireNEW DELHI - Afghanistan lost their second successive World Cup game on Wednesday after an eight-wicket defeat by India but coach Jonathan Trott says they are making progress and have got to grips with conditions in Delhi where they play England next.

"We thought it was the right decision to bat first, all the results pointed towards batting first as a bit of an advantage with the fact that the outfield is sort of sprayed and there's not much dew," he told reporters. "So a good run out for our boys, a good lesson in how to play cricket here in Delhi and look forward to the England game," he added.
