WATCH | Team Afghanistan Celebrating Their Historic Victory Against Australia In T20 World Cup 2024

Rashid Khan-led Afghanistan cricket team created history on Sunday as they outclassed Australia by 21 runs in the Super 8 stage match in T20 World Cup 2024. An underdog team presented an impressive show against the world champion Australia, and Rahmanulah Gurbaz pulled a rabbit out of the hat.

The win was so special that Afghanistan players got emotional and started dancing as they knew that now they really have a chance to qualify for the T20 World Cup semis. If India defeats Australia in their next match, then the Kangaroos will be knocked out. However, Afghanistan then needs to beat Bangladesh in their next game. But if India fails to stop Australia, then Afghanistan needs to win their next match by a big margin.

Both scenarios show Afghanistan standing on the verge of qualification.

Afghanistan players know this hence they are busy in dancing and celebrating the big victory. Former Afghan star Mohammad Nabi and their bowling coach Dwayne Bravo shared celebration videos on social media which have created buzz on the internet. These videos show emotions running high as Afghan players standing on the seventh heaven after their remarkable victory.
