This was like the most succesful tour in The history of Afghan Cricket winning 5 out of 5. Afghan Cricket Certainly progressing,and this series is a prove for that,but ICC will never know this. Despite getting the least oppurtunites Afghans are brillant! Hats off my team.!
what a performance by Afghan against Scotland. it seems that Afghans are improving and wish to win the remaining one day matches of WCL to qualify for the world cup and should also win the intercontinental cup as they won previously .
Posted byas a Bangladeshi I hope Afghanistan will get their test status by next 18 - 24 months. They should establish strong domestic structure , 4 days 1st class league, 50 over and t-20 league as well, and ICC and ACC should help them.
