Afghanistan created a history by beating Australia for the first time! None of us here in the forum might have expected a big upset like the one we witnessed today. Australian team were the favourite to win against Afghanistan but the Afghan bowlers were able to defend their target of 149 runs. They won by 21 runs difference and now the match between India and Australia will become important for Australia. If Australian team doesn't win then the NRR between Australia and Afghanistan will decide who goes to the semifinals. If Australia beats India then the calculation will be simple.
For the first time in t20 history, the Afghanistan team beat mighty Australia and created history this is very big win for Afghanistan team. Afghanistan opener Gurbaz and Ibrahim make a partnership of 118 runs which helped them to post a good score of 148 runs this target was enough for the Afghanistan team to defend and they did it. Afghanistan team bowling can destroyed any team batting line up. Australia team while chasing 105/5 in 14 overs and they needed 44 runs on last 36 balls Maxwell supported their team to close a victory but when Gulbadin Naib dismissed Maxwell i think this was the turning point for the Afghanistan team. All credit goes to Gulbadin who took four important wickets of Australia betters including Maxwell, Stoins, tim David and pat Cummins their middle order was destroyed by Gulbadin naib Now all eyes of the Afghanistan team is on the Australia vs India match because India's win over Australia will help the them to qualify for next round in case of Afghanistan beat Bangladesh in last match of super eight.

England's performance in today's match was something to watch, I am really happy to see today's game. Team USA scored 115 runs for the loss of 10 wickets, and their game was not good at all today. But England team showed their strong performance against the USA team today to win by 10 wickets which was very interesting. Jos Buttler has batted with tremendous responsibility to take the team to the semi-finals.
Jos Buttler / Philip Salt partnership -- 117 Run

First I want to congratulate England sqaud for successfully qualification in semi final match and in today match against USA squad, England squad defeat USA sqaud by achieving low quality defeating target which was set by USA sqaud in 49th match. Chris Jordan bowled total 2 and half overs and in these overs he picked up total 4 batter wickets of USA sqaud include main members of USA squad. England squad bowlers first restricted them at low Defeating target and after in batting inning, USA bowlers did not face the impressive performance of England batter and simply emerged victorious and reached on Semi final game. Phil Salt and Jos Buttler both were enough this small Defeating target and Jos Buttler performance was unbelievable and unbeatable in match was yh 83 scores. Jos Buttler / Philip Salt partnership -- 117 Run

England's batsmen played brilliantly against USA's weak bowling attack. Jos Buttler's brilliant batting has won the England team very easily. Buttler was unbeaten by collecting 83 runs off just 38 balls. Buttler hit 6 boundaries and 7 over boundaries. And because of the big win, the England team has progressed in the NRR. So the England team has already qualified for the next round.
I am looking forward to tomorrow's South Africa vs West Indies match. South Africa team is very lucky in this World Cup. Almost every match in South Africa was very competitive. And the South African team won by a narrow margin. On the other hand, the performance of West Indies team players is quite erratic. So it is difficult to predict which team will win this match. Both teams have equal chances of winning.

Finally few teams are almost qualified for semifinals and England is in one of them after that crazy victory, it's true that Australian open gates for them while qualifying for super 8 when they are in danger of elimination but now they haven't any fear of emanation while few teams like Australia and south Africa are on the verge of danger because Australian has to face indian and let suppose if they lose they will be out and Afghanistan will easily won thier last match but indian doesn't then Australia will be successfully out of that trouble situation while same situation is with south Africa in his last match where they will face west indies and if they lose they will be out. Anyway according to today match USA scored a very low target and England win it with 10 wickets in hands and 10 overs left which really help England to be out of trouble situation of south Africa and West Indies. Let's see who will qualify that semifinals stage Jos Buttler / Philip Salt partnership -- 117 Run

ICC T20 World Cup, 2024 match Aus Vs Afg. very exciting match. Australia won the toss and elected to field. Afgen batter Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran strat very good innings both make fifty plus runs. Australia's fielding was also very poor this match they dropped several catches missing some boundaries. Afghanistan managed 148 runs in six wickets of twenty overs. Australian bowlers try to control bowling. Pat Cummins takes three wickets. Australia started to chase this target, but they lost wicket very early. Travis Head made zero David Warner also made three runs off eight balls. only Glenn Maxwell made 59 runs of 41 balls. Australia all out 127 19.2 overs. Afghanistan made very good won.
Perhaps no one was prepared for such an outcome in this match. Everyone considered Australia as the favourite. Because Australia is a very strong team and is in good form now. But the performance of Afghanistan players surprised everyone. Afghanistan team won the match by 21 runs.
I did not bet on this match. I think a lot of gamblers lost their money in this match. Everyone considered Australia as the favorite in the match. Had the pitch been completely batting friendly, Australia might have won the match. But the pitch helped the bowlers a lot. The Australian batsmen could not stand against the bowling attack of Naveen Ul Haque and Gulbadin Niab. These two bowlers picked up 7 wickets for just 40 runs in 8 overs. Both these bowlers were the main heroes of Afghanistan's victory.

Bangladesh VS Australia
Bangladesh and Australia will meet in the 40th match of T20 World Cup. Australia is a stronger team than Bangladesh. However, currently Bangladesh's bowling line has become very strong, Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman are currently in great form. But the batting line of Bangladesh is very weak, especially the top order batsmen of Bangladesh cannot perform well. Australia has performed brilliantly in this World Cup. Australia won 4 out of 4 matches in the first round group stage. Australian players are currently in great form. It may be difficult for Bangladesh to beat Australia. Hope the match can be a competitive match. I will put Australia team ahead based on performance, I think Australia can win. Let's see which team can win by performing well.
Bangladesh won only one series against Australia and that T20 series was held in Mirpur. Moreover, Bangladesh has not been able to defeat Australia in T20 in any international tournament. Today, however, the opposite of this equation did not happen as Australia easily won against Bangladesh in today's match. Having seen the batsmen of both teams batting and seeing the bowlers deliver these two things, as far as I feel there was nothing special for the bowlers on the wicket and Bangladesh batsmen should have done better there. If Bangladesh could have taken the target of 180 or 190 runs with the batting line-up of Australia then this match might have been a competitive match but it was not like that. Bangladesh and Australia will meet in the 40th match of T20 World Cup. Australia is a stronger team than Bangladesh.

England must win today's match against the strong USA. England must win against the USA if they want to confirm their semi-final match. USA is a young team but they are very strong compared to many other old teams. So it can be said with eyes closed, that the United States will not leave England today. England's survival will be fought today. The game will be very enjoyable for everyone.
England is ready to go into the playoffs but still the South African team can beat them and make their team place into the playoffs but let’s see what will happen here. This time, the openers make the game best. But we are seeing more runs from Jos Buttler and at this time, he is very near to hitting his fifty.
On the other side, Phil Salt is just making the ball as single or dots playing like ODI but Jos Buttler playing amazingly and the man of the match award is waiting for him, I hope he will finish the match and will not be out.
England will surely with this match by a big margin getting their NRR to a very good level.

England must win today's match but United States is a good team.
Remember the first match the USA played with South Africa? He (Quinton de Kock) had a catch out when against a bowler he tried to hit a good shot and for this, he moved the bat into any direct and direct goes to the boundary but a fielder of the United States of America named Shayan Jahangir came and easily took a catch of Quinton de Kock.
By the way, the catch was not easy but still as he picked, it seemed for him but for any other fielder it could be hard to catch. However, like this, they stopped Quinton de Kock to hit a century against them. It was bowled by Harmeet Singh and the ball was caught by Shayan Jahangir.

I was shocked by today's match. Afghanistan beat a team like Australia. It must be accepted that Bangladesh can be defeated by Afghanistan very easily. But the question is if you lose by how much, will Afghanistan's dream last?
Meanwhile, India is the strongest team in this World Cup. Beating India is difficult but not impossible. If Australia beats India by a big margin of runs or wickets then Australia's semi-final semi-final is confirmed.
But it doesn't feel good to anyone in this World Cup. Who is losing whom and what is happening is not understood.

Indian team has played and give the run target 196 with with lose of 5 wickets. In this match and Indian team will win this match easily because the batting and bowling of Indian team is dangerous and they can win the match against any team by scoring only 150 runs . We saw the Indian team match against Pakistan in which they made only 119 runs and they won the match but 6 runs. No one expect win of India but nobody knows India is India and Indian team is legendary team and they can apply pressure on any team at any time and team can lose their rhythm. In today match , Indian team will win easily by 50+ runs .Bumrah Will take Wickets in this match and I also like Arshdeep because he is quality bowler and his performance is IPL was also excellent.
Indian team played really well especially thier middle order where Hardik were continuously delivering decent number even after consecutive worst performance from thier top order while Dube did good but still unable to deliver a big impactful innings anyway just like you mentioned they easily defend 120 against paksitan but if you deeply observe pitch conditions them you will get the answers why thier opponent got dominance even after a very low target. Anyway Indian and south African has officially qualified Thier name for semifinals while Bangladesh and USA were officially eliminated but just to play his last matches in order to filled the formality. I think Bangladesh unable to Handel thier opponent and leak 30+ runs which turn the entire situation and thus they lose the match but here the main character for that defeat are middle order in my view because they can easily done it but unfortunately not.

Afghanistan kept their semi-final dreams alive by defeating Australia in today's match. If the latter can win against Bangladesh by a huge margin, then they definitely have a chance to enter the semi-finals. But according to the run rate, if Australia can win the next match against India, they will enter the semi-finals. Australia have a better chance of entering the semi-finals than Afghanistan. But Australia must beat the Indian team otherwise they will never enter the semi-final and it is very difficult to beat India. So if Australia loses against India in the next match then Afghanistan can definitely enter the semi-finals if they win against Bangladesh.
Afghanistan team's semi-final is still not guaranteed but they have hope. They have a good win against Australia in today's match which is why they still have dreams of reaching the semi-finals. Afghanistan team's next match will be against Bangladesh. If they win that match and if Australia loses the match against India, Afghanistan team is almost certain to reach the semi-finals. The current performance of Bangladesh team seems that Afghanistan team will easily win against Bangladesh. But if unfortunately Bangladesh team wins against Afghanistan then their dream will be shattered.But Afghanistan's run to the semi-finals will go through many equations as they will have to wait to see if Australia will lose against India.

Well played, Afghanistan team. This is just beyond imagination. The Australia team looked very strong in the super 8s. But this mighty team has been defeated by this young Afghanistan team. We need to praise the openers along with the bowlers for their amazing bowling. Yes, special mention to the captain of the Afghanistan team; he did the best captaincy of his whole life. Now it will be fun to see, who will qualify with India for the Semi Finals from this group.
I have the same feelings too, Still cannot believe how it could be happen.
Now, from this day never underestimate the Afghanistan team. I don’t know if it seems that they could win the World Cup but if in the final match, they meet with the Indian team then their chances will be low if this happen. But still, they are fully confident for the next match because they beat to the Australia and now Bangladesh will not play comfortably against them. What a peak the Afghanistan team but they have not won a World Cup so maybe this time, the trophy's waiting for them. Let’s see who will take over with the trophy.
June 23, 2024, 05:14:25 AM
Also I don’t know but I think that once again we will see that Gleen Maxwell moments when last time he faced to the Afghanistan team and hit two centuries in a single match. Now, have to see what will happen in the next match for Aussies. Today we also saw the difference between Kingstown ground and that Indian ground where we have seen the greatest match ever between Afghanistan and Australia.
Australia always makes a comeback from minor set back and wins the an ICC tournament. Atleast this is what has been happening under the captaincy of Cummins. I skipped the live telecast as I was certain that Australia will easily win the match. I am suprised and confused to understand why did they not bat first after winning the toss, knowing that the pitch was slow spinner friendly. They messed it up when they allowed Afghanistan to bat first.
Both Afganistan openers did play very well as they were the ones who contributed mainly to the target. Afghanistan batting was always a problem and that to the middle order. Moreover they crumble when it is a pressure game but in this match they had the luxury to play slowly that they did and got a decent target on the scoreboard.
Afghanistan bowling has improved a lot in the past years and they utilized this opportunity to create a history and a big upset in a T20WC-2024. I can foresee that Australia might not be able to make it through to the semifinals. Interestingly in the group 2 there are two teams that are fighting to get through and they are ENG and the WI.

Yes, I didn't think Afghanistan would beat a strong team like Australia today. Afghanistan set a target of 149 which was not a tough target but the Australian batsmen were all out before the allotted overs. Australia's bowling line was good, but Australia's batting was very poor. Australia's opening batting David Warner and Travis Head both batted badly, except for Glenn Maxwell, no other batsman could bat well. Afghanistan take a step forward in the race for the semi-finals after defeating Australia. If India can beat Australia and Afghanistan can beat Bangladesh then Afghanistan will qualify for the semi finals. It may be difficult for Afghanistan to beat the Bangladesh team. Let's see in the end which 2 teams from Super 8 Group 1 can reach the semi-finals.
