Afghanistan did all that and more -- and they did make an impact -- but finally had to bow out of the tournament with their heads held high. Not just did they keep their hopes alive of qualifying for the semifinals till the end, they were better placed than India to make the grade had they beaten New Zealand on Sunday.
