Zimbabwe don't even get Christmas off. Poor lads.

Looks like a decent crowd in.
 
Afghanistan not found better players then Mangal and Asghar tsk tsk.

I don't know who made azghar captain, he can't score most of the time. Him and nawroz must retire and give the young guys a chance.

Cricinfo says his Full name: Amir Hamza Hotak

He bowled really well. A spinner 3 bowled is very impressive. No LBW, no catches, all bowled.
 
Brendan Taylor where art thou ?

Amazing win for Afghanistan.
 
Great win.

Though am stunned at how low Zim have fallen. Afg have to build on this. Well done to Inzi too.
 
Congrats brothers. Great victory by Afghanistan.

Thanks bro, I love it. So happy for the team and people of Afghanistan. These wins give a lot of hope to all the youngsters out there.

Poor Zimbabwe.
Congrats Afghanistan,was always backing them to win this after the first over of Zimbabwe's batting.
 
Pretty impressive to see so many people at Sharjah stadium for this match. It's Friday, so people are free. Might not be this many people at the other games.
 
Great victory and great bowling by Amir Hamza. Love the Afghanistan team and I hope they keep winning!
 
ACB Fb page says 9,000 people came for the match. That is very good crowd. Minimum ticket was 30 dirhum and maximum 300 dirhums.

what a waste of time and ICC funding is this Zim team.need to be booted out.they have no interest or intention to improve,in a couple of years will join Kenya.after the exodus of white players they are really struggling thanks to his Royal Highness King Mugabe
 
Ireland have poor bowling and Afghanistan doesn't have good batters.We have the best team.Our whole team is balanced

Wasnt UAE the worst side in last world cup?Both Ireland and Afghanistan looked much better teams than UAE.
Doubt the UAE team qualities have increased that much suddenly.

Will see in T20 world cup qualifiers I suppose

We are not in WT20.No Afghanistan were worse than us
 
I hope Afghans keep getting more regular ODI game against all test playing nations as it will only help there team development.
 
Thank you for pointing this out with evidence.

You're welcome. Afghanistan is clearly better and I don't know what this guy is talking about. People want Afghanistan to get test status where as UAE is finishing 6th with Canada last in the World Cup Qualifiers...

I have been through this with him in the past but he keeps going on and on about how UAE is superior to Afghanistan.

Afghanistan team is improving quick and with inzimam's as head coach and a new bowling coach, they can get even better.

The good thing I have noticed is, the youngsters are performing which is a good sign. Recently our under 19 team won 4:0 against Zimbabwe.

I really like the Afghanistan team and I hope they keep improving and at one point become a team that can compete with the other major teams along with Ireland.

Good signs for Afghanistan and hope that both batting and bowling will improve under the new coaches, Good Luck!
 
Rise of Afghanistan is critical for the long term benefit of cricket. It is great to see Afghans doing so well, especially after all the war and violence in their nation. I hope the popularity of the game is growing there.
