That was surprising as under dogs Afghanistan beats Sri Lanka in Asia Cup by 91 runs and sent them back home. 

Afghanistan being new to the international cricket played well for defeating 5 times champion. 

It seems Afghanistan will show its presence in cricket.

A small lamp beat the storm. I feel good that a country which in fighting with clashes for some decades, now doing well in games.

This is the starting who knows what they do in coming time. People of Asian countries are really crazy for cricket.

People of Asian countries crazy but they have not enough sources like Western countries.

Cricket doesn't require anything except bat and a ball. Its not an expensive game. 

Afghanistan is not a team to be taken lightly, as they have the potential to beat any of the bigger sides, on their day.

Players in their team seem to be very energetic and strong. I feel good that in country which was stricken with wars they managed to come up to this level. This is really an inspiration.

Even Hong Kong is performing well after watching yesterday's match. Their players are playing like if they have lots of exposure of international cricket.

Bat and boll is not enough, to play cricket one must have complete kit. You know price of shoes which cricket player is using. Yes for street cricket bat and ball is enough.

Last night Team India beat Pakistan badly, God knows how many TV broken in last nightstuck_out_tongue_winking_eye

Sri Lanka going out came as a shock to everyone. But Afghanistan really played well. Sri Lanka is a strong team and to knock them out of the tournament is a big achievement for a new team like Afghanistan.

Pakistan really had a poor show and it was an easy match to be won by India Lets see how they come back in next match.

Cricket is one of the most expensive of games. The bats and balls are too expensive beside the other gear used for protection. And the costliest thing that you have to consider is time. A test match takes 5 days, a one dayer 8+ hours and even a 20-Twenty takes 4-5 hours. And mind it the game is not played by more than 15-20 countries in the world.

Last night team Afaghanistan score 256 runs against Bangadesh. The rising Sun in the cricket world.

Afghanistan is certainly rising, but beating Srilanka was not such a big upset given the track Record Srilanka had over the past year or so. It had lost many matches & this was bound to happen. Afghanistan has quality spinners but needs good pacers & a couple of batsman yet. However they are well on their way to create upsets. Yesterday itself it came very close to beat Pakistan, however lost in the last over by conceding 10 runs. Malik played a crucial role for his team.

Afghanistan played well again against Pakistan. They secure 257 runs. although this match is won by Pakistan. Sri Lanka is facing problem, it is happen with all teams. They will come in form very soon.

2 close defeats seals the fate of Afganistan! Hope they put up a spirited & determined performance against India in the dead rubber & in a way that will give the audience something to cheer about.

Afghanistan and India playing a tied match is proof enough that Afghanistan could very soon be the team to beat.

Afghanistan is a good team. It has proved it again from the last match they played with India. They are going to be on the top in future.

Yes future of Afghanistan  team is bright. It is looking good that  team of country which is disturbed for more than 35 years is know doing well in games.

Afghanistan did a great job but now out of the race so the topic is closed now.
