What's new

Australia [209/3] defeat Afghanistan [207] by 7 wickets in the 4th match of the Cricket World Cup

Why are you throwing your wicket away :facepalm:

What a terrible shot by the captain.
 
Perfect time for Rashid Khan to come in and go boom boom :afridi . Need atleast 250, need a full 50 over match his Saturday
 
If Shahid Afridi was born in 1996 would he prefer to play for Afghanistan?
 
They know they are going to lose. So they want to have fun i suppose. But as part of the learning they should bat out 50 overs.
 
Afg batters are so dumb.

20 overs left, 6 down, yet mindless slogs.
 
Some real dumb cricket being played by Afghan, they could have done this in the last 15 overs with wickets in hand and gotten 250+.
 
Srilankans and Pakistanis need to look at these tailenders, they are out there fighting and taking physical blows.
 
THey should focus on batting 50 overs. May be not everyone is capable of surviving. Their best survival method seems to be hitting
 
Lol this has been rubbish batting so far. Flailing around, hoping to connect. Besides Mohammad Nabi, none of these guys look like they can hold the bat.

Yet they've scored more than Pakistan and Sri Lanka :facepalm:
 
Afghanistan players know they have nothing to lose when they play big teams hence they can be aggressive.Pakistan at the moment are too worried about losing so the batsmen go in a shell and start making mistakes.
 
I understand their later order batsmen throwing the bat. But their top order should ahve been more sensible.
 
Such poor games on the weekend.

Hopefully Bangladesh perform well tomorrow and we get a good match.

The gulf of class between teams in this World Cup is far too big.

India
England
Australia
New Zealand

Are just on another level

Mid ranged teams are Bangladesh, South Africa & West Indies

Then you got your minnows

Pakistan
Afghanistan
Sri Lanka
 
Not a bad effort from Afghanistan. Disappointing that they wasted so many overs but this is the way they play, and the way they should play.

Why are the Pakistani fans so delusional?

The point is even if Pakistan win this , it does not matter .

First of all the saying that Pakistan has lot of Talent is wrong , mostly there are mediocre .
Secondly the selection committee has been completely biased.

Until and unless Pakistan bring drastic changes , nothing is going to happen. You have to play for dignity , and self respect.
 
So Afg is the first Asian side with 200 in their first game of WC 19, BD and Ind yet to play. So congrats to Afghans on that milestone!
 
BD's the type of team to score 50 whilst chasing 100 off 50 overs.
Nothing is hard for Bangladesh.

In which world cup was that?

BD at least has beaten India in a WC. Not bad for a supposed minnow.
 
Look at the boundaries. I'm backing aus to get this by the 25th over.
 
Impressive start by Hamid.

Love the attitude of this Afghanistan team.
 
Whoever wins the WC will have to beat Australia. Key players in form. Settled side but do have competition for places. Experience of winning the WC as well. Don't understand why some people think India have a better chance than Australia.
 
Look at Afghanistan bowlers states, much similar to our batters stats
Very good states but against minnows
 
Ten team world cup was a good idea but now it is similar to other world cups

3 minnows and 7 top teams
Pak , Sl and Afg are minnows

So you remember WCs, a team that was destroyed by Pakistan in QFs bundled out a Asian Giant for 58 Infront of their home crowd some years ago. Can expect another performance like that.

That was 8 years ago mate, get over it.
 
This Hassan guy is going to be handful against some of the other Asian team. He is took quick for guys like Warner, Finch.
 
[MENTION=147429]Chokli[/MENTION] from predicting a Pak vs Aus final to “Pakistan is a minnow team.”

How did that happen?

The lack of respect for the country by our players.
 
Sorry, it's Bangladesh. Maybe by 2023 but right now it's Bangladesh.

I was talking about the world cup, and I completely forgot about Bangla Bros, but honestly, I don't see them doing any better anyways.

I think you need some time off from cricket. You've been seriously affected by Pak's loss against WI. You're in a deep trauma right now. I'm not even joking.
