Afghanistan win their first cricket match

[Waughney]

It's a long way from a couple of years ago
Good to see this match get a bit of publicity, although they only beat Bahrain, a wins a win and they should be proud of how far they've come. I do think it is just a bit ambitious to be aiming for the next world cup but you never know. Well done Afghanistan.

Yup.

Always willing to stand up and applaud a new cricketing nation.

 

[Mr. P]

YAY. One of the greatest moments in cricket. Go Afghanistan.

And three years ago they were ruled under the Iron fist of the Taliban.

Congratulations.
