Bangladesh defeated Afghanistan by 8 runs in a thrilling match. With this, Bangladesh has kept the hopes of going to Super-4 alive. In this match, Bangladesh had scored 154 runs while playing first, in response to which the Afghan team was able to score only 146 runs. The Super-4 race in Group B has become even more exciting. As soon as Ajmatullah Umarzai was out on a score of 30, Bangladesh returned in the match.

Half of Afghanistan’s team had returned to the pavilion by a score of 77. From here, Ajmatullah Umarzai became a ray of hope for the Afghan team. He increased the hopes of Afghanistan’s victory in 16 balls playing a 30 -run innings, but in the 16th over, he was dismissed by Taskin Ahmed. Just from here, the attitude of the match was changed.

Afghanistan prevented from going to Super-4

Afghanistan could go to Super-4 by achieving the target of only 155 runs, but she was 8 runs behind the target. Afghanistan needed 45 runs to win in the last 4 overs. Captain Rashid Khan was still at the crease and he scored 14 runs in the 17th over.

Alam was that the Afghan team needed 27 runs to win in the last 2 overs. On the very first ball of the 19th over, Rashid Khan hit a four, which still expected Afghanistan to win, but Mustafizur Rahman dismissed him on the next ball. Mustafizur also dismissed Gajanfar on the next ball, but could not complete his hat -trick.

In the last over, Noor Ahmed definitely hit 2 sixes, but all this proved to be insufficient for Afghanistan’s victory. Let us know that no team has qualified for Super-4 yet from Group B.

Said on not joining hands

Sunil Gavaskar said on the controversy that does not join hands, “It is a personal decision of a player what he has to do and what not. Many times people abuse you or behave indecently in the field, which is not acceptable at all. If someone takes your name to join hands with other players, it is not right to expect.”
