Men's ODI WC: All-round Afghanistan Beat Sri Lanka To Strengthen Semifinal Hopes
ODI World Cup: Afghanistan produced an outstanding all-round performance to beat Sri Lanka in Pune by seven wickets. The Afghanistan bowling attack caused Sri Lanka plenty of problems on the Pune surface, restricting the total to 241 despite several batters getting good starts.
The chase was a masterclass in composure, with Afghanistan recovering from the loss of Rahmanullah Gurbaz in the opening over to chase down their target with seven wickets and 28 balls to spare.
Rahmat Shah (62), Hashmatullah Shahidi (58*) and Azmatullah Omarzai (73*) all scored half-centuries after Ibrahim Zadran had set the tone with a classy 39 early in the innings.
