ODI World Cup: An unbeaten partnership of 111 runs for the fourth wicket between skipper Hashmatullah Shahidi (58 not out) and Azmatullah Omarzai (73 not out) after a superb bowling performance helped Afghanistan defeat Sri Lanka by seven wickets and cause a third upset in the ICC Men's ODI World Cup on Monday.

Afghanistan, who had already defeated defending champion England and neighbours Pakistan earlier in the tournament, chased a target of 242 to cause another upset and moved up to fifth position in the points table with six points from three wins in six matches.
