Afghanistan Qualifies for T20 World Cup Semi-Finals After Historic Wins

Afghanistan made history by qualifying for the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup for the first time after a thrilling 8-run win over Bangladesh, knocking out both Bangladesh and Australia in the process. Rashid Khan starred with both bat and ball, contributing crucial runs and taking key wickets. Australia's hopes were dashed despite their initial win over Bangladesh, as subsequent losses to India and Afghanistan sealed their fate. The match between Afghanistan and Bangladesh was marred by rain delays and controversial time-wasting tactics from Afghanistan. In another key match, India defeated Australia by 24 runs, led by a stellar performance from Rohit Sharma, to secure a semi-final spot against England. Afghanistan will face South Africa in the first semi-final.
