They're just not very good.

Some bowlers worth watching though so I'm glad they put up three figures to give them a chance to bowl at them for a while
They are good but probably are facing a stronger opponent than them.
They reached Semi finals of Asia Cup U19 recently. Afghans got lucky with the draw this time.

I've kept an eye on their results, they're a poor team compared to some others we've had. It's not like I've made the comment based on one innings FFS

Loving the slingy action on Tanzim. Always going to generate some pace and movement bowling like that I reckon.

England vs Afghanistan and India vs Australia in the semi finals.

Hyped. Can't wait. Also love that all the losing/eliminated teams are getting a Plate competition and play-off matches to determine final rankings. Good amount of quality game time for all these cricketers. UAE vs Ireland for the Plate Final is fantastic, hope that UAE pull it off!

I guess Plate & play off games were part of last edition as well. One of the rare instances where ICC has done something good.

I dislike young Jacob Bethell more than any talented young man with an eye on his future deserves.

Every run he makes is a slap in the face of the greats of Caribbean cricket.

There's been plenty going on already. Excessive afghani appealing. Thomas having 1 big slog an over. Good bowling by the Afghanis in the first few overs then increasingly ragged.

Spin choke looks the way forward here. The quicks have been dealt with pretty comfortably.

Afghans have a decent shout here to cause a massive upset but they have missed too many chances. It may come back to bite them in the end
