Afghanistan vs South Africa in T20 WC 2024 Semi Final: It is said that if the spirits are high, the flight often falls short. The Afghanistan cricket team did something similar. Rashid Khan’s team was so high in spirits that it plunged a team like Australia into sorrow. In the T20 World Cup 2024, Afghanistan defeated Bangladesh in their last Super-8 match to make it to the semi-finals. This victory made Australia cry. Even though the reactions of the Australian players could not be seen, everyone must be sitting with their hands on their heads. Afghanistan reaching the semi-finals is also being celebrated in India. Why not, after all, by eliminating Australia, Afghanistan has also brought relief to the hearts of Indian fans.
Afghanistan created history
Afghanistan made history by reaching the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup. This is the first time that the Afghanistan team has been successful in reaching the semi-finals of the World Cup. On this joyous occasion, tears were seen in the eyes of many players of the team including Rashid Khan. From coach Jonathan Trott to bowling consultant Dwayne Bravo, the happiness was clearly visible on their faces. And why not, first defeating Australia, which holds the record of winning the most World Cups, and then eliminating it from the tournament within a few hours is nothing less than a miracle.
Celebrations were held in India too
Indian fans are also celebrating Afghanistan’s entry into the semi-finals. Indian fans got the biggest relief when Australia was eliminated from the T20 World Cup. Let us tell you that Australia had broken Team India’s dream of winning the ICC trophy within a few months. First defeated them in the final of the ICC World Test Championship in 2023 and then defeated them in the ODI World Cup final held in November this year. Now if anyone is the happiest after Australia’s elimination from the T20 World Cup, then it is the Indian fans.
