May this be the reverse jinx that Afghanistan need.

Exactly as I intended...although I'd rather have the Aussies win. A much more likable group of lads!

Quadrat ka Nizam has shifted its allegiance

There's a long way to go yet...even if Afg win here which it certainly looks like they will!..they will be equal on points to Pakistan but much lower in NRR is I'm not mistaken. That means they NEED the win over SA which I can't see happening.

Everything about that run out felt like I was watching in slo-mo.

Afghanistan to win the WC!

Nabi and Rashid haven't really been themselves throughout this World Cup. Probably their biggest Superstars till date and they haven't fired on all cylinders.

Maxwell to score 100 in 40 balls and winning it for Australia.

If Afghanistan wins, they will have 10 points and will be 4th on the table. The onus will still be on NZ and Pak to win their last games in that case.

For Pakistan, there will be the added pressure of beating both NZ(assuming NZ wins) and Afghanistan(assuming they win today) on NRR.

Man, this Afghanistan team is scary

Given how Aussies are playing, they might get bowled out for 150 which would boost Afghanistan's NRR.

Just based on performance alone, Afghanistan surely deserve a top 4 spot. New Zealand have lost 4 in a row, Pakistan are not a semi final team, they just are not.

 

[Pinch hitter]

Afghanistan is unbelievable good in this World Cup so far...

[Khan Sahab54]

Afghans bad start to this tournament might cost them, if they won against Bangladesh, they would have already qualified

 

[Umair7]

The last ever outing for Oil Rig in ODI's hopefully! T20 Stoinis only from now on please!

 

[wasteyouryouth]

If Afghanistan win it'll be a great final week.

Super Saturday could be Australia and Pakistan both playing to qualify for third/fourth.
