It could have been an easy victory for the Afghanistan team, but they were made to struggle by the Pakistanis. This is why I get frustrated with these lower ranked sides (Afghanistan, Ireland.etc). They show a lot of enthusiasm in the field and put in a lot of hard work. But their finishing is horrible. Ireland can be classified as the choker team, but Afghanistan would come close.
What is there to get frustrated, Afghanistan is a fairly new entrant in world cricket after their war torn homeland and we have to appreciate that they are performing really well in the world stage and they have some world class players in their team who could easily fit into any world eleven. They might not have the best finishers and they might not have classical players but they are playing well and winning matches which is important.I agree as its going to take time for these countries to make a name for them self in world cricket. Just take a look at Bangladesh and what they are doing now and we can see Afghanistan has the potential to be good in the long term so we just need to give them time to mature. They can upset some middle ranked teams on their day.
