Afghanistan’s Historic Win Over Australia Praised by Wasim Jaffer

Former Indian cricketer Wasim Jaffer praised Afghanistan after their historic win over Australia in St Vincent. Jaffer emphasized that calling the victory a fluke would be disrespectful to the Rashid Khan-led team.

Key Moments in the Match

Gulbadin Naib’s four-wicket haul and Naveen’s crucial dismissal of Ashton Agar were pivotal in Afghanistan’s 21-run triumph. Jaffer congratulated the team on X, stating, “Afg are good enough to beat any team on their day.”

Maxwell’s Effort

Australia’s Glenn Maxwell scored 59 runs, but his efforts were in vain as Afghanistan’s Naib forced a thick edge, leading to Maxwell’s dismissal. Noor Ahmad took a sharp low catch, ending Maxwell’s threat.

Australia’s Struggle

After Maxwell’s dismissal, Australia was all out for 127. They now face a must-win game against unbeaten India to secure a spot in the final four.
