Cricket World Cup 2023: Can Afghanistan Still Beat Pakistan, New Zealand In Semi-Finals Race?
Afghanistan were a whisker away from boosting their Cricket World Cup semi-finals hopes, but Australia's Glenn Maxwell won the game single-handedly for Australia. Chasing a target of 292, Australia were 91/7 at one stage. They were so close, yet so far as Maxwell hit an unbeaten 201 to pull off one of the most unbelievable run-chases in the history of the tournament. Maxwell stitiched an unbeaten 202-run partnership with captain Pat Cummins, who scored just 12 runs off 68 balls during the epic stand.

The ton in Cricket World Cup 2023 was a record equalling 49th ODI hundred for Kohli but Hafeez termed the India batter 'selfish' over that knock. Soon after his comment, Vaughan poked fun at Hafeez. Vaughan said that the former Pakistan player criticised the India star because he was clean bowled off Kohli's bowling during the T20 World Cup in 2012.

Suryakumar Yadav And This Youngster In India Captaincy Race For Australia T20Is: Report
Injured T20I captain Hardik Pandya is unlikely to be available for India's upcoming five-match series against Australia starting November 23 as the star all-rounder will require more time to recover from his left-ankle ligament tear. It is understood that the team for the home T20I series against Australia will be announced only after India's World Cup semifinal, which in all likelihood will be played in Mumbai on November 15. According to sources in the BCCI, a more practical scenario for Hardik would be to get fit by the time the South Africa T20 series starts from December 10 in Durban.
