SA but will cheer for Afghanistan as well.

Both teams are good but hoping SA doesn't choke vs afghan bowling as I want a close match not one-sided match.

In 2022 SF there was no Bumrah in squad

So Eng beat Ind by 10 wickets

Hope this time story is different

Afghanistan kept chipping away with wickets at regular intervals. What Litton needed was support from the other end, he got some flashes of that support from Soumya Sarkar first and then Towhid Hridoy. There was a decent enough support that came by way of Tanzim Sakib and Taskin Ahmed by hanging in there.

Litton meanwhile brought up his 11th T20I fifty and threatened to single-handedly take Afghanistan out of contention. But Bangladesh's slightly slow batting at the crunch time let it slip out of hand for them when it came to going through to the final four.

Another rain break put Afg ahead on the DLS par score and caused a reduction of one over. But was clear at that stage that the only thing stopping Afghanistan from victory and progression to the semis, was Litton Das' resilience! Australia had their hopes pinned on Litton too and he did not disappoint.

But, the lower order could not come up to terms with the quality of the Afghan bowling attack. Rashid Khan took 4 for only 23, Naveen ul Haq finished with figures of 4 for 26 runs, Noor Ahmad gave away only 13 runs in his 4 overs and Gulbadin Naib slipped in 2 overs for only 5 runs.

With 8 runs left, Naveen trapped Mustafizur Rahman first ball and even a review could not save the left-hander! After all that happened, after all the ebbs and flows, Afghanistan were victorious!
