Afghanistan v Namibia at Abu Dhabi, 10/31 Sunday (D)-- Match #27, Group 2

[SillyCowCorner1]

Afghanistan are surely gonna bounce back from that defeat against their neighbor, Pakistan...

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

I just read that this is going to be the last match for Asgar Afghan, former captain.

 

[slippy888]

Namibia have got a few ex players from South Africa, no one can underrate them like the bookies have for this match they are around 4/1 to win

I just read that this is going to be the last match for Asgar Afghan, former captain.

I thought he retire at end of tournament

 

[mackembhoy]

I thought he retire at end of tournament

Nope and it's very bizarre when he's been in the side every game.

 

[slippy888]

Shaun Tait a bowling coach for Namibia

 

[BoyBrumby]

I've been impressed with Trumpelmann every time I've seen him so far this tournament, but Zazai has taken a real fancy to him.

 

[slippy888]

Robbie Frylink should have offered his service also to namibia, he unlikely to get picked by south africa these days

 

[slippy888]

What happen to Rahmat Shah the afghan batsman dont he play 20 20

 

[BoyBrumby]

Gurbaz must've thought he'd hit that, because it was stone dead.

Two-thirds of the way up middle and off. Doesn't come plumber than that.

Nicol Loftie-Eaton is a wonderful name too. Sounds as if he should be playing netball for a posh girls' boarding school.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Probably fair to say neither side perhaps completely used to having reviews to call upon.

Both have burned through their two with 3.4 overs of the Afghan innings left.

 

[slippy888]

Nope and it's very bizarre when he's been in the side every game.

maybe his heart not in it to be playing cricket under there current goverment

 

[BoyBrumby]

160/5 then.

Gotta favour the Afghans, but hoping for a close chase.

 

[Tom Flint]

That interview with afghan makes it sound like something happened behind the scenes to make him retire. Its very strange especially as they have a good chance go get to semis

 

[cnerd123]

Afghanistan will beat India.

I'm calling it.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Gulbadin bringing out the guns is a great sight to see in this WC

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

So that was Rashid Khan's 100th wicket for Afghanistan

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Namibia are tottering and toppling to a paltry total.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Hamid Hassan delivering the impact here with serious yorkers

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

All the best, Asghar Afghan
