Champions Trophy: Afghanistan Take Australia In Virtual Quarter-final To Seal Semis Spot
The stakes could not be higher. The loser of this Group B showdown will likely be eliminated, pending the result of the England-South Africa match in Karachi. However, a win for either side will all but confirm a spot in the semi-finals, where they will face either India or New Zealand.
For years, Afghanistan had been considered an emerging force in world cricket, but their performances over the past few years have ensured that they are no longer seen as mere dark horses. Their stunning win over England on Wednesday night has put them within touching distance of the semi-finals in their maiden Champions Trophy appearance.
