Afghanistan (148/6) defeat Australia (127) by 21 runs in the Super 8 clash of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024

[mominsaigol]

Midfield, Afghanistan not doing themselves any favour

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Lol Afghanistan have bowled 8 bowlers. And are yet to use Karim Janat, their 9th bowling option. Talk about overkill.

 

[mominsaigol]

They are bowling all the bad balls to him. Too full. He cannot stand and hit sixes like that. No bouncers at all.

Yeah cause Afghanistan lose the plot against him

 

[jnaveen1980]

Maxwell against Bumrah average 12 in international 8 in the IPL

 

[BouncerGuy]

Maxwell against Bumrah average 12 in international 8 in the IPL

Does it matter?? Bumrah is not here.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Afg has mental block against Maxwell. He could not put bat on ball in the last 6 months and now he is back to playing like the second coming of Viv.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is a chanceless innings unlike his ODI innings. That was a blunder by Afghanistan Easy dolly

 

[sweep_shot]

44 are needed from 36 balls.

105/5 (14 overs).

Maxwell against Bumrah average 12 in international 8 in the IPL

Australia is blessed with these clutch players always.

 

[jnaveen1980]

They must bowl dot balls.

 

[JaDed]

Easy win for Aus this thanks again to Maxwell, Afghan ka bacha bacha darega MAXWELL ke naam se lol

 

[sweep_shot]

Maxwell against Bumrah average 12 in international 8 in the IPL

How is it relevant to this match? LOL.

Very random.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Australia is blessed with these clutch players always.

Yea.. opposite of SA lol NON-clutch players. Otherwise genius players go missing in crunch games

 

[Champ_Pal]

Australia is blessed with these clutch players always.

This is why they are champions. Always. Their players step up when the going gets tough.

 

[jnaveen1980]

They should have bowled a lot of bouncer. You should bombard him with bouncers.

 

[Asif321]

Afghanistan could have easily got 30 more runs

 

[jnaveen1980]

Catch of the tournament or what?

 

[JaDed]

Goneeeeee now its game

 

[Asif321]

Omg what a catch

 

[Ali Active]

maxwell gone

 

[cricketcricket79]

His pies are effective on this sluggish pitch.

Clearly. Match winning pies so far.

 

[mominsaigol]

Maxwell gone

 

[BouncerGuy]

this is big wicket..... Afghanistan is on top now.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Oh this guy. This guy is another clutch guy.

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

Finally the big fish , Maxwell gone

 

[sweep_shot]

Gulbadin gets Maxwell.

Game on.

 

[Vikram1989]

What will happen to pak and bng ,if afg sneaks to semis by any chance

 

[rhony]

Well well well!!!

 

[mominsaigol]

Oh god, I wanna turn the TV off, I can't watch

 

[jnaveen1980]

Too many clutch guys. IN order to topple these guys you need sheer brilliance. Nothing else.

 

[sweep_shot]

Maxwell has done his job. He scored 59.

Rest have to step in. Wade is the key wicket now.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Maxwell gone. A new twist?

Now watch Cummins play like a proper batsman. The match is never over when Aus are playing.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This Cummins is a canny guy. lol He won't look like scoring runs. He would suddenly be 20 not out.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Oh god, I wanna turn the TV off, I can't watch

So Australia choked.

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

India can be knocked out if Afghanistan wins and other results go a certain way

 

[jnaveen1980]

Maxwell gone. A new twist?

Now watch Cummins play like a proper batsman. The match is never over when Aus are playing.

You need supreme skill that is too good for them like SHamar Joseph biltzed Australia at the Gabba. They tried their best to survive. But he was just too good.

 

[Asif321]

Serious chance now . Afghanistan need to be calm and finish it . Don’t get over excited

 

[Ali Active]

wade gone

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

So Australia choked.

Cummins still there

 

[jnaveen1980]

Wade gone.

 

[Ali Active]

why does afghanistan try harder against certain teams

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Indians should not be cheering Afghan win it can backfire on us ... hehe

 

[jnaveen1980]

These are all impossible catches for subcontinent fielders.

 

[rhony]

This will be an earthquake!! Loving it. Aussies can still do it but Afghans are in the driving seat

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

why does afghanistan try harder against certain teams

And the conspiracy neurons start firing

 

[jnaveen1980]

Indians should not be cheering Afghan win it can backfire on us ... hehe

Don't care. I love a good fairy tale. Atleast a subcontinent team that wants to show fight against big boys.

 

[Champ_Pal]

No Najeeb to drop catches today.

 

[mominsaigol]

Yup I'm turning the TV off, I can't freaking believe this. I am so upset. I am not coming on PP for the rest of the day.

 

[jnaveen1980]

If Afghanistan goes through at the expense of India i don't mind.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Agar can bat too.

 

[mominsaigol]

So Australia choked.

My next franchise cricket name for Ct 2025 will be Destroy Afghanistan

 

[Asif321]

India can be knocked out if Afghanistan wins and other results go a certain way

No India won’t Australia has the chance to be knocked out . India won both games wel an

 

[rhony]

Turning pitch and aussies are like.deer caught in the head lights.

 

[MANU ROY]

Lol Australia might lose this game

 

[Asif321]

Keep your calm Afghans don’t let this slip

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Poor from Wade. Got overconfident trying to attack Rashid on the first ball. Should have just played out the over.

 

[Ali Active]

And the conspiracy neurons start firing

brother u can see in their efforts against certain teams

 

[jnaveen1980]

Will that missed run out chance hurt them?

 

[Dhakar Pola]

Lol Australia might lose this game

Yeah. India can kick them out of the world cup in next match

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

Yup I'm turning the TV off, I can't freaking believe this. I am so upset. I am not coming on PP for the rest of the day.

Enjoy the Sunday, Lets cheer Max for The Spanish GP!

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Don't care. I love a good fairy tale. Atleast a subcontinent team that wants to show fight against big boys.

Exactly. Also, Afghans play with such heart and courage that you can't help support them against teams that are not India.

 

[jnaveen1980]

brother u can see in their efforts against certain teams

ON certain pitches they can threaten anyone. ONly recently India was 22/4 against htem in India.

 

[MANU ROY]

Lol India 90 present qualified

India can be knocked out if Afghanistan wins and other results go a certain way

 

[mominsaigol]

Pat Cummings better do something

 

[rhony]

Indians should not be cheering Afghan win it can backfire on us ... hehe

Indians are already in the semis with that massive NRR

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

[Asif321]

[jnaveen1980]

Gulbadin is on fire.

 

[JaDed]

brother u can see in their efforts against certain teams

Yeah what about their effort against WI? BD is the same , they put more effort against Ind and Lanka but not Pak, but we don’t keep bringing this

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

I am so upset. Khair, Australia vs India will be life and death for Australia now.

If India gets clobbered by Australia and Afghanistan thump Bangladesh

 

[rhony]

LOL!! Aussies are being dumped out of the world cup.

 

[Asif321]

Omg Australia

 

[JaDed]

Still feel afghans will mess it up

[jnaveen1980]

Yeah what about their effort against WI? BD is the same , they put more effort against Ind and Lanka but not Pak, but we don’t keep bringing this

It is as if they have something called "effort meter" and they adjust it according to the opposition lol
