Raucous finish at Adelaide Oval, courtesy of Rashid Khan's dead-eye tonking. But the mood is subdued for both teams as they leave the field

Here is Player of the Match Glenn Maxwell: [Got close at end] "Certainly did, Afghanistan played well, struck the ball cleanly. Started well in the powerplay and we were able to haul it back, but there was some pretty clean hitting at the end. [Run-out, catches] Nice to have an impact in the field, knew I wouldn't bowl much. The wicket was quite slow during the day, quite hard to push on. Had to put a total on to give ourselves a chance to win the game. They executed well and we couldn't get away. [Eng-SL game] We'll be following it, we put ourselves in this situation but hopefully SL can do the job for us."

Great match

Maxiboy man of the match

"Dhawan & Sayed Anwar won many MOM vs weaker teams in the past"

Although maxi can share the ball but Sayed bhai & Dhawan not.

So the Debut match between Aus vs Afghanistan won by Aus

Only match ever between Afghanistan vs Australia in any T20 Nov 04, 2022

Australia NRR Minus. 173 (--0. 173)

7 points same as nz ( +2.177)

If SRI LANKA BEAT ENGLAND

Than Australia will qualify for semi, eng 5 points but even lanka beat eng by 1 run their point will be 6 ( 1 more than eng)

If eng beat SL than

Host Australia have to wait till 2024 in usa & Westindies

Making 164 runs while chasing against Australia is no mean feet.

Too bad we could not see more of Afghanistan in this tournament.

Cheers..

Yeah.

I’m so happy to see AFG play so well against AUS.

IND didn’t even play well against SA. 😡 What a shame to see other teams do so well against top teams whereas we got folded quickly against SA 🤡😡

Mohammad Nabi | Afghanistan captain: Really good game of cricket, they started really well, at the end Farooqi bowled well. The way we started in the powerply and in the middle, but we throw away that 4 wickets in the middle under pressure. It's really tough to play a game and then don't play for 10 days. We did not get any momentum at all through this tournament. Day by day we improve and today was a fantastic game for us.

Matthew Wade | Australia captain: We gave Stonis the last over, to have the allrounder to bowl the last over is pretty nerve-wracking. I played him in IPL and I have seen him do it for 3-4 times. But never felt entirely sure at any point. We will stay here tonight and watch the game tomorrow, we will be hoping for an upset. We put ourselves in this position from the get-go, we have been slow in this tournament and hopefully it doesn't cost us. David was very close to selection tonight and we are very hopeful they [David and Finch] will come through if we get there.

Close match, Congrats to Aussies!

Thanks for the tags ❤️

Ya that earthquake from 97/2 to 105/6 cost them the game

I do not know why They gets panic no need Hara Keri

"So the equation is pretty simple now in this group - New Zealand are through. If England win against Sri Lanka tomorrow, they are through. If England lose, Australia will go through. On that note, we leave it here."
