Australia Out, Afghanistan In! Social Media Floods With Memes After Rashid Khan And Co's Win Vs Bangladesh

After a thrilling encounter between Afghanistan and Bangladesh, Rashid Khan and co. qualified for the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 semi-finals. At Kingstown's Arnos Vale Ground in St. Vincent, Afghanistan marked an 8-run victory over Bangladesh as they managed to defend the low total of 115 runs.

The Afghanistan vs Bangladesh match result affected Australia more as they are now officially out of the tournament. Australia lost to Afghanistan first and then India crushed their challenge, which resulted in Afghanistan securing the sconed spot to qualify from Group A.

However, if Bangladesh had won in the high-voltage match, then Kangaroos would have been promoted on the basis of a better run rate.

The victory is so big for Afghanistan that players got emotional and their eyes were filled with tears of joy.

Afghanistan cricket team gathered praise from their fans and supporters from around the globe.

Former Cricketer Yuvraj Singh wished Afghanistan saying: "Absolutely fantastic scenes from the park! What a win @ACBofficials 👊🏻 Nail-biting right to the end! Emotions soaring high as the Pathans enter the semis for the first time ever! Match-winning performance by #NaveenUlHaq. Cricket at its best 🔥"

England's Tom Moody congratulated Afghan team stating: "Wow what a game full of drama of all sorts and that is an understatement! Congratulations to @ACBofficials a special achievement."

Meanwhile, fans did not leave a chance to troll ODI World Champion Australia, who even failed to qualify for the semis this time.

Well done Afghanistan 🔥#AFGvsBAN pic.twitter.com/biGy1PuQTy
