That's the game - impossible single and Najib goes.
Afghans will be disappointed with this batting
I'm glad they are losing, might bring the minnows back to reality. Can't wait for real cricket to resume tomorrow.
And just as I type this, malinga yorks him haha
Poor Sri Lankans. Celebrating like they have beaten number one team.
Will Afg go winless??

Mcculum’s prediction are mostly wrong
Afghanistan are chokers and are lucky to be in world cup, curtosy of hong kong beating nepal and uae beating zimbabwe in qualifiers which gave afghanistan edge in qualification.
They will lose 9-0 in this world cup. bunch of over rated team fully supported by Indian lobby and parts of ICC.
He is one of the most over hyped pundit (Captain) in cricket.
true there seems to be political agenda in the indian support. many commentators, simon doull, even michael clarke and obviously all of india hyped afghanistan as a team who could cause real upsets and a team everyone must fear.
even rashid and mujeeb are not dangerous anymore
but they do have potential, explosive openers, najibullah and a decent no.3 rahmat shah
all they need is a proper keeper(shazad is a disgrace to keeping, no offence) and good fast bowlers, there are some in their domestic circuit
im sure they will be a better team in 5 years
The pitch provided for Pakistan's first match a green seaming one.Both of Sri Lanka's matches were on green seaming wickets.In contrast England gets flat batting paradises.England's batting is its strength.It seems there is something fishy going on.Afghanistan's inexperience and rashness was exposed by experienced Sri Lankans.Afghanistan could have chased the runs successfully but they did not apply themselves.They only needed a couple of good partnerships.
Well done Lanka. Even winning against Afghanistan is an achievement for them. Oh how the mighty have fallen.
Anyways afghanistan are a good upcoming team but they need to understand their place. They think they're better than Pakistan and Bangladesh and have a good chance of winning the semis. It's okay to be cocky but you need to be realistic. Afghanistan are now where BD was in 2007 WC(where we beat 2 of the favourites - India and SA in 9 matches)
Poor Srilankans. Country of De Silva, Ranatunga, Sanga,Murali, Mahela, Vaas, once world champion are celebrating wins over Afgans.
Feeling for Afgans also . Their bowlers brought their team back after flying start if Srilanka, but their batters ruined it
My message to Afghanistan fans is. Their ascendance to the top was extraordinary. It was like a dream coming true. It deserves a movie.
However, I can assure you, the next few steps are much more difficult. It is easy to beat lower tier teams but when you are up against top teams - you can't afford to make any mistake. You have to be good in all aspects. We Bangladesh fans have found it the hard way. We too rose quickly - 1997 to 2000 we were flying high. After getting test status we came crashing down. No doubt we were improving but we were making our mark when cricket was at it's absolute best. All of the top teams back then were exceptional and if you think the no. 9 ranked team - Zimbabwe were bad, then you're wrong. Zimbabwe in 2003 WC would start as favourites against many of the teams playing in this world cup. I hope the fans and cricketers remain humble and patient. And maybe after a decade Afghanistan will become a good team who would constantly challenge the best sides in the world. Slowly but surely
Why are you comparing? There are few trolls here try to get under BD posters' skin, but that doesn't mean you need to get after AFGs. I don't think anyone having any cricket sense ever expected AFGs to make SF - whoever thought so either an idiot or trolling. But, they have few quality individuals,who can win a game against odds on their day - Bangladesh could be one victim as well.

please dont compare BD ascend with Afg. 1997 to 2000 BD are nowhere near where Afg is currently now
Quite harsh laughing at Afghan bros and tomorrow is Eid brother where is the love
Sri Lanka had a strong start to the innings but their collapse was just horrible to see. 4 wickets gone in quick succession. Only Kusal Prera (if i am recalling his name correctly) came out as a capable batsmen.
Afghanis really bowled well and had a proper plan in place.
Afghanis started well as well, the Zazai guy is pretty good but they collapsed even worse than SRL.
I would say one thing that Afghanis in a very short span have managed to garner some impressive performances. I am truly happy to see them rise up so well, Bangla and Ireland were nothing in the short time span Afghan cricket has grown.
SRL on the other hand look like a shadow of their old selves, very poor and imo should be the last placed team in the WC. Pakistan should hope to win the match against them on Friday and with a good margin to fix the NRR mess.
Shouldn't afghanistan be last placed team since they lost to SRL?
