The biggest upset of Cricket World Cup 2023 so far, Afghanistan defeated England. If we talk about this match, Afghanistan gave a total of 285 runs while batting first and the England team could not chase it. Oh,what an upset for the last edition Champion 🏆. Surely,this defeat will hurt them for a long. Jos buttler win the toss and decided to bowl first. Their bowler failed to capitalize in the powerplay as Rahmanullah Gurbaz took all the bowlers to cleaners with fours and six. The England bowler like the Chris woakes and Sam curran was not at the top of their bowling except for the Recce Toplee. Mark wood did bowl the well.
In the first powerplay Afghanistan put a good batting display and made 79 runs in their first 10 overs courtrsy of Gurbaz. But in the middle overs when Adil rashid comes to bowl he picks the first blood out of Afghanistan in the shape of Ibrahim zardran and then rahmat shah along with Rahmanullah Gurbaz runs out. This time england team brought themselves back in the game by picking wickets and last the ikram khel did well to stick the one end and made his fifty. Forget not the fiery powerplay of Mujeeb ur rehman and gave the team a respectable total of 285.
The total was not as big on the batting friendly wicket but Afghanistan bowlers did the best performance to get england bowled out. No batter like the Bairstow, Malan, Joe root, Jos Buttler able to stay on the wickets except the Harry brook who eventually caught out by the Mujeeb ur rehman.
All the Afghanistan bowlers was among the wickets like the Fazal ul haq farooqi, Rashid khan, Mohammed nabi, Mujeeb ur rehman and took the win from the jaws of England.
This would consider the biggest cricket upset in the history owing to current English team.
But what a performance by the Afghanistan and what a win for them to make a mark in the cricket world cup 2023.
