Rohit Sharma's men are playing all their matches in Dubai, and even the final will be held there if the team goes the distance, while the rest of the teams have to criss-cross Pakistan for their matches.

Afghanistan's Rise In ICC Events: From Underdogs To Giant Slayers

Afghanistan's remarkable rise in international cricket continues to captivate fans worldwide.

With weather not improving, match officials called off the game nearly two hours after the scheduled start time. The gloomy weather prevented even the toss from taking place.
