Ayy SA makes it to the semis, Rabada's four was such a clutch. I'm glad rain didn't wash-out match completely.

This is a big disappointment for the West Indies team as they not only lost this match but also lost the chance to move to the semi-finals of this world cup. We could see the sad faces not only in the team but also in the crowd as 90% of the crowd was from West Indies and they came to see their team through to the final.

Once again this match was a low score and again it was a thriller. South Africa is the only team that remain unbeaten in this tournament. What’s more exciting is that they are the only ones who won a lot of close matches and didn’t panic in the end or take the match pressure. Will they continue this form in the semi-finals and the finals ? That’s the big question.
South Africa played good cricket and not only won the game but also an unbeatable team in this World Cup like India. Hosts are out from the World Cup now everyone is waiting and watching who is coming from another group and played a Semi-final with SA.
India lost wickets early today but other batsmen are performing well. The number of wickets lost by the Indian team is higher, here the bowling performance of the Australian team is much better. Rohit Sharma has performed well, if he can score 200 plus runs in today's game, he will have the best chance of winning against the Australian team.  
Australia has the most aggressive batsman in the team who can be aggressive at any time. So India team has collected 174 runs in 17.2 overs so far, thus if India team continues to collect runs then there will definitely be a chance to win.
Hitman played a wonderful innings and secured a victory for India in a very important match. Australian fast bowling line is completely shattered by Hitman and other players. A loss from Afghanistan costs them a lot now and probably pushes the auses out of this world cup.

What a surprising moment that Afghanistan is in semifinals. And one more surprising thing is that now Australia didn't qualify for the semifinals. And now these are the four teams are in semifinals. South Africa, Afghanistan, India and England. So first match us between Afghanistan and South Africa and second is between England and India. And I am looking that India and Afghanistan will play the final match. So let's see.
It's not a surprising moment its a result of the hard work and determination that which Afghanistan team and players showed throughout this tournament. A well deserved team move toward the semi-finals and we hope that they put on a good show against South Africa.

PS: I won't mind if SA or Afghan lift the trophy.
Afghanistan team has ability by the way. I think the first semifinal they will win. And the final match will be held between India and Afghanistan. And if England will go in final so I think Afghanistan will win the match. Afghanistan basically improved much in some months. Like we saw in the ODI World Cup how they perform. Unfortunately they lost from Australia. But here they took revenge. By the way I really appreciate their performance and I hope they will win the trophy too.
The first semis is between AFG vs SA so one thing is for sure, we will get at least one new face for the finals. this will be the first ICC final for Afghans or Proteas (Guess for them too).

I think, after Australia, England are the worst match for India. England are also a clutch team and India needs to up their game against them with no 30 minutes of bad cricket, also it's a knockout (Achilles heel of India).
Semifinalist are their
SA VS AFG
ENG VS IND
These 4 teams play a good game throughout the tournament apart from 1-2 games but look they are now in Semis. As a cricket fan, we hope that a good game of cricket is played between these teams. Let's see who will secure the position in the finals.

I think it's a first time for Afghanistan to qualify for any semifinals stages of ICC competition and I think that's a huge achievement for them because mostly they were underrated but now they has proved how well they has improved and the reason behind thier player performance is playing different franchise league where they get huge experience and skill which they implement in his international duty. Anyway here is huge contribution from Rashid in term of captaincy and in term of as all rounder. Bangladesh really did well and get them on a very low target but some how rain interpt and become benifical for them otherwise may be Bangladesh give them tough time and get the game away from them. Anyway huge congratulations to Afghanistan for that achievement.

I like to treat everyone as a friend 🔹
The performance of the Bangladesh team in today's match was not at all strong but played poorly. Although it is very sad for Bangladesh that they lost against Afghanistan and their dream of semi-final was dashed. However, Afghanistan team always show their best performance and fight hard enough to win against the opposition team. I am very happy that the Afghanistan team beat Bangladesh in the semi-final with their strong performance. However, South Africa vs Afghanistan for the semi-finals and India vs England will certainly make these matches more exciting.

I think Afghanistan going to be win this match. And there also qualifying the semi final I mean the next round of this ICC T20 world cup. It's true that Bangladesh also did very good in bowling performance but currently I am seeing they also lose their 7 wicket before the hundred run.
But the good news for Bangladesh is that Liton Das is not out yet and if Liton Das can last till last then I think it will be difficult for Afghanistan to win. Let's see what's going to happen at the end but right now it was very competitive situation on the field.

For the first time in history, Afghanistan qualified for the semi final match in T20I World Cup, not only in T20 but also for the first time in any ICC tournament.
Just imagine if they will win this World Cup  Smiley.  From the last one year since 2023, the team peak time was started, they give loss to Pakistan, New Zealand, England, United States of America and Australia too. This time Australian team has been out from the World Cup and Afghanistan qualified for the Semi-final. What an amazing experience for them, when they came in then the celebration that they have done such a next level achievement. The Afghanistan team is on its peak.

BTW, what's your opinion on Jadeja this season? He's been poor overall this tourney, including fielding.
From the start, I had no expectations from the batter Jadeja. In bowling he's under bowl as well, he kind of lost all his white ball tricks. He did fumble in the field but still, he's our gun fielder so I am not worried about his field.

Having said that, I don't think they will drop him because slow pitches in the Caribbean require a different skillset and an extra full-time bowler who can bat is a big plus, although he's not in form with the bat but still looks like a good bet when comparing to specialist batter or seam bowler.  

Bumrah + Arshdeep + Hardik (Batting allrounder) + Kuldeep + Axar (Spin all rounder) + Jadeja (Spin all rounder). This combination is working nicely so far and it's important for team balance. It gives you an extra bowler and most importantly with this combination, your team can bat as deep as number 8, which is necessary.

Afghanistan managed to score only 115 runs but they bowled in a controlled manner which allowed them to bowl out Bangladesh for just 105 runs. Bangladesh bowlers tried their best to win the match against Afghanistan. If Bangladesh could have won within two balls in 12 overs, Bangladesh would have definitely played the semi-finals. I would say it was a golden opportunity for Bangladesh but the Bangladeshi batsmen failed to capitalize on it. Bangladesh has performed fairly well in T20 world cup but batting line of Bangladesh is very weak. Because Afghanistan team plays cricket much later than Bangladesh but they are able to play semi-final. Bangladesh has been playing cricket for a long time, but it is a shame for Bangladesh that it has not qualified for the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup. If Bangladesh want to improve their game in future they must bat responsibly but if they can't bat responsibly then they will never do well.
Lol man ! I want to say if there is only one worst performer team in this t20 world cup super eight then it will be the Bangladesh team. I lost my bet today I was thought Bangladesh was going to win this match because they really did good at bowling side and target was very low but they can't take this easy score even being the stronger team from Afghanistan anyway congratulations to Afghanistan team for magical performance at the end.

Bangladesh vs afghanistan match today match is very important for afghanistan if afghanistan team can win by defeating bangladesh then the semi final will be very much confirmed for afghanistan. so today match will try to win anyway afghanistan team. Afghanistan's bowling line is very good and Afghanistan's players are very confident after winning against Australia. Afghanistan team won the toss and decided to bat first. Afghanistan's opener pair batted very responsibly. Looking at the current state of play in Afghanistan, it seems that the Bangladesh boller have also put a lot of pressure on the Afghanistan batsmen due to which the Afghanistan batsmen have not batted well. Afghanistan's current score is 90 for 3 with 17 overs to play. Afghanistan's current state of play looks like they can score a maximum of 130 runs if they bat well. If the batsman of Bangladesh can give a responsible performance against Afghanistan today, then maybe they can win against Afghanistan. If the batsmen of Bangladesh could have performed the way the bowlers of Bangladesh have performed in the T20 World Cup, surely Bangladesh would have qualified to play in the semi-finals.

Always loved Afghanistan winning matches, they have such passion for sport, and they going against SA in semis makes it even better as I love both of these teams, wouldn't mind whoever wins there. India better win against England though.

Afghanistan's bowlers also performed very well in this match and defeated Bangladesh. After the victory of Afghanistan in this match, the Afghanistan team qualified for the semi finals. Afghanistan, South Africa, England and India qualified for the semi-finals.

South Africa and Afghanistan will meet in the first semi-final. Both these teams are very lucky in this World Cup. And because of the good performance of the bowlers, they qualified for the semi-finals. So I would say that even though the South African team is experienced, both the teams have equal chances to qualify for the finals.
England vs India match is very difficult to predict. We have seen the Indian team perform well against Australia. On the other hand, the England team is also considered as the favorite in the semi-final.

Enjoy the beauty of nature 😊


I would say the two main heroes of India's victory in this match were Rohit Sharma and Kuldeep Yadav. Rohit batted well. And Kuldeep Yadav picked up the wicket of Mitchell marsh at the crucial moment of the match. Travis Head and Marsh were able to form an excellent partnership. Had Kuldeep not picked Marsh's wicket at the right time, it would have been more difficult for India to win this match. At the same time, Kuldeep took two wickets by giving only 24 runs in 4 overs.
I think  206 runs target was not big for Australian team if they make partnership and they didn't lose the wicket in last seven overs. In the first ten overs of Australian batting,match was in the control of Australian team but after that Indian bowlers bowled very well and Australian batters lose their wickets one by one and Indian team became successful to win the match against Australia. That match was tough for Indian team because that is the same time who won the last World cup against India and now India took revenge . Indian team should score 230+ runs because they were looking in good form and if Maxwell play 5 overs more then match could bend to the Australian side.

I don't know anything but I am happy for Afghanistan. And you are right they improved their batting and bowling much. They beat one of the best team Australia. And now the Australian team is out of the World Cup. Second the best team is India and I think they have ability to win against India too.

Yeah, they certainly possess the ability to defeat India, they almost did it in T20 series months back.

By the way first match will decide that Afghanistan will go in the final or not. Mostly we have seen that South Africa qualify for the semifinals but they mostly lose the semifinals match due to a bad luck so this is also a bonus points for Afghanistan. So let's wait for the match. I also hope Afghanistan will perform well.

SA seems to have luck on their side this tournament, so better chances they'll cross semis this time around. I'd put 60-40 (SA-AFG) chance for both these teams.

The main reason behind the loss of the Bangladesh team today is the batsmen of the first phase.  Although Liton Das and Tanjid Hasan entered the field as opening batsmen, Tanjid Hasan got no chance to turn around and got out.  

Although Liton Das stayed on the field in the end, and he scored enough runs for his side. Basically, if Shakib Al Hasan, Nazmul Hasan Shanto, Mahmudullah Riyad, and Tanjid Hasan could have scored a few runs, the Bangladesh team would have won for sure.  
Because Bangladesh had a good chance to win today's match, Afghanistan team's bowling performed well in the end and won.

Group 1 turned out to be more competitive and produced a thriller and an upset, although i won't call Afg vs Aus outcome an upset. Afghan deserves all the praise and they deserve it, they were about to beat Australia in the ODI WC too but were bodied by Maxwell-ed. More than 2 decades and Bangbros are yet to qualify in any WC semis, in contrast, look at Afghan.

Bangladesh players don't have passion, it's almost like they just play for money, they weren't playing to qualify today either despite having chance to qualify.

India are Group Matches bullies, they bully every team and get humbled and heartbroken in every semis or Finals. In the last decade, I've seen this story countless times in every ICC tournament. Let's hope they get their shit together this time.

True, but they won't be facing Australia this time around, Australians who usually tend to be high on confidence when facing India, so may be India has got a better chance this time around.

BTW, what's your opinion on Jadeja this season? He's been poor overall this tourney, including fielding.

Due to Rohit's stormy batting, the Indian team is now in a very good position. Rohit Sharma returned to the dressing room after collecting 92 runs from just 41 balls. At the end of 14 overs, the Indian team collected 154 runs and lost only 3 wickets. India team is collecting more than 12 runs per over. India will collect at least 210 runs today. We were sure that India would collect big on a batting friendly pitch. And from the Indian batsmen we can see the expected performance.
Rohit Sharma was on fire today. He is hitting back to back sixes and fours all along the ground but I think it could be hard for the Australian team because now they made such a good score and took a good advantage now. Rohit Sharma has to focused on making partnerships which he did well.  Just imagine, if he is not out at this time, then the other team can do nothing but if he will make partnerships with Rishabh Pant and also allow him to play then if Rohit will out then no problem because he already made 90+ runs in the game in very good way and India will make more runs with other players too.

India scored 205 runs at the end of 20 overs with the loss of 5 wickets due to a brilliant start by Rohit Sharma. Rohit Sharma hit 8 over boundaries in today's match. We expected such batting from an experienced batsman like Rohit in this important match.

But I expected to see little better batting from India in the last overs. India's batting was very slow in the 15th/16th and 17th overs. This is why India's innings stopped at 205. India collected only 16 runs in these 3 overs. Almost every Australian bowler bowled very badly today except Josh Hazlewood. Hazlewood conceded only 14 runs in 4 overs. Stoinis scored the most runs. He gave 56 runs in 4 overs. Pat Cummins gave 48 runs in 4 overs and Mitchell Starc gave 45 runs.

The Australian team stumbled at the start of batting against a big target. The team lost the important wicket of David Warner. Warner was in very good form. Australia had a chance of winning the match if Warner stayed at the crease.
Congratulations team India on reach in the semi final and bad luck for Australian team they fought hard but unluckily to finish the match for his country while chasing 206 runs Australia team made only 181 runs trevis head played brilliant inning of 76 runs. Trevis head and Mitchell marsh played 81 runs partnership after that their partnership was broken Australia score stopped and pressure increased on Australia team Credit goes to Indian bowlers kuldeep yadav spell was outstanding he brought India back into the game. Now Australia team is fully dependent on Afghanistan match in case of Afghanistan winning Australia will be eliminated if Bangladesh won then net runrate will be decided who will play semi final with south Africa. Australia has better run rate then Bangladesh and Afghanistan
