NEW DELHI: Afghanistan advanced to the semi-finals of the 2024 ICC T20 World Cup with a dramatic eight-run victory (DLS) over Bangladesh in their final Super Eight match in St Vincent on Tuesday. Afghanistan joined India as the qualifiers from Group 1, thus eliminating Australia from the tournament.
Bangladesh also had an opportunity to progress or send Australia through with a victory. However, the Afghans bowled out Bangladesh for 105, securing the victory they needed to set up their first World Cup semi-final against South Africa in Trinidad on Thursday.
