Ahmedabad: Afghanistan out of the 2023 Cricket World Cup without seeing the semi-final. After failing to score a record score in the match against South Africa, Afghanistan is returning home. Even if they narrowly win against South Africa, the team will not reach the semi-finals.
Afghanistan could not complete the target when they faced South Africa in the last group match. Afghanistan could have reached the semi-finals only if they had won by at least 438 runs against South Africa. But only the team can surpass New Zealand’s net run rate which is ranked fourth. Despite winning the toss and electing to bat, the team could not get a big score. Afghanistan were all out for 244 runs in 50 overs. Despite missing the semi, the Afghan players are returning home with their heads held high. This time, Afghanistan produced the best performance in their World Cup history. Afghanistan managed to win four of the first eight matches. In the last match, the team surrendered after shaking the five-time world champions Aussies.
