Six months ago, Afghanistan performed brilliantly under the mentorship of Ajay Jadeja. Then in their third match, Afghanistan's team came out against England. When that team, captained by Hasmatullah Shahidi, defeated England by 69 runs, it seemed that this was just an upset. But Afghanistan's stalwarts did not stop here. After this, they badly defeated Pakistan by eight wickets. Then by defeating Sri Lanka by 7 wickets, they told everyone that this is not a mere coincidence but Afghanistan has the ability to defeat big players with its ability.
