:Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran shared an opening stand of 118 before Gulbadin Naib took over to drive Afghanistan to a 21-run win over Australia in St Vincent on Saturday and keep alive their hopes of reaching the Twenty20 World Cup semi-finals.
A century opening stand by Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran and a bowling masterclass from Gulbadin Naib led Afghanistan to their first ever win over Australia in any format to keep alive their hopes of reaching the T20 World Cup semi-finals.
Rishabh Pant has got good starts in the five innings he has played in the ongoing T20 World Cup so far but he has failed to capitalise on them. The left-handed batter has scored 152 runs across the five innings with his best score being 42. India's T20 World Cup Super Eight match against Bangladesh on Saturday was no different for Pant as he started well, but failed to take his innings deep, once again. Batting on 36, Pant was dismissed by Rishad Hossain after he reverse swept a ball directly into the hands of Tanzim Hasan Sakib at short third man.
West Indies legend Vivian Richards honoured the number one ranked T20I batter Suryakumar Yadav with the 'Fielder of the Match' award following India's win over Bangladesh by 50 runs in their ICC T20 World Cup Super Eights clash on Saturday. India took one step ahead in their pursuit of semifinal qualification as they beat Bangladesh by 50 runs in their ICC T20 World Cup Super Eights clash at Antigua on Saturday, with Hardik Pandya's all-round show and a destructive spell by Kuldeep Yadav being the highlights.
Indian cricket talisman Virat Kohli finally looked in some sort of form with the bat, scoring 37 runs off 28 balls as the team defeated Bangladesh in a T20 World Cup 2024 match on Saturday. Kohli, who had only scored 5 runs in the first three matches of the tournament, entertained fans with his blitz in Antigua as India put 196/5 on the board while batting first. Even in the field, Virat gave fans a nostalgic feeling of playing gully cricket, as he had to go underneath an advertising hoarding to get the ball.
Australia paceman Pat Cummins took a hat-trick for a second match in a row at the Twenty20 World Cup on Saturday, dismissing three Afghan batsmen in successive deliveries after doing the same against Bangladesh on Thursday.
The Afghanistan cricket team secured its first-ever victory against Australia, in any format of the game, beating the former champions by 21 runs in the Super 8 round of the T20 World Cup 2024. Generally considered as a side with world-class spinners, it was the pace bowling unit that led Afghanistan to victory this time, with Gulbadin Naib claiming 4 wickets, producing the Player of the Match show. While Afghanistan kept their semi-final hopes alive with the win, the result also gave their Super 8 Group a big twist.
Bangladesh's seasoned all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan became the first player to take 50 wickets in the T20 World Cup. On a night when Bangladesh were outplayed in all facets of the game by their neighbours, India, Shakib managed to etch his name in the history books. Shakib was expensive in his three-over spell, giving away 37 runs at an economy of 12.30. His sole wicket in the game was of Indian skipper Rohit Sharma. The 37-year-old lured Rohit to slog the ball away. He pulled out a thick outside edge, and the ball landed safely in the hands of Jaker Ali.
