Right batter on strike, they get a run out and still 6 balls to go

[voodoo]

21 more wides and Afghanistan are home

[ACT Crusader]

17 off 4.

4 more 4s and a super over

[ACT Crusader]

Let’s go

[Damo]

woah.

[voodoo]

Damn

[ACT Crusader]

That flurry of 4 quick wickets - argghhhhhh

Rashid going at 200+ SR. Great knock

[Damo]

Aussie will finish with a negative NRR.

Great stuff from the Afghans. Hope to see some more of them in the next few years.

[ACT Crusader]

Well that was entertaining. Afghanistan had an excellent fight back with the ball when Maxwell and Stoinis looked like they were going to take it away. Then they have a fight back with the bat after those 4 quick ones.

Maxwell’s throw turned the game.

[KiwiMurph]

Why does Rashid bat so low haha.

Comes in at 8 and hits 48 from 23.

[Kruse]

That was fun to watch. Never really believed the brave Mujahideen would triumph over the Evil Empire, but fuck... they got close.

[No Quarter]

I went to sleep when they needed 48 from fuck all, amazed they managed to get within 4! Agree the Maxwell run-out turned the game and saved the Aussies big time. Well done Afghanistan.

That makes the formula nice and simple for the English tonight.. don't choke now...

[Damo]

Used pitch at the SCG, could be interesting. On the other hand hard to see Sri Lanka being motivated at the end of a long tournament (for them), with no chance to progress.

[LABCAT]

Sri Lanka with an excellent start.

[Damo]

Feel dirty but I am cheering for England here.

It would be just like the jammy Aussies to fluke their way into the semis and win it all. I would not want to play them in the final.

[Damo]

Sri Lanka falling apart here. Just 3 off the 17th over. Only 4 down.

[ARHS]

That was a horrible second half of innings from Sri lanka
