In a turn of events that has sent shockwaves through the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023, Afghanistan clinched a momentous victory against Pakistan in Chennai, overturning expectations and rewriting their cricketing history.

Afghanistan’s cricket team carved their legacy by registering their inaugural ODI victory against Pakistan, toppling the Men in Green with an eight-wicket triumph. The significant milestone came from a formidable performance by their top-order batsmen, who meticulously chased down Pakistan’s target of 283, marking their second major upset in the tournament after previously outplaying the defending champions, England.

Key players Ibrahim Zadran, Rahmat Shah, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, and captain Hashmatullah Shahidi rose to the occasion, contributing pivotal innings that steered Afghanistan to victory with just six balls remaining in the game. This feat has not only bolstered Afghanistan’s stance in international cricket but also intensified the competition in the World Cup, with both teams now standing at two wins and three losses in their group-stage encounters.

This game has rewritten the dynamic between the two sides, marking a historic shift in their ODI statistics. Out of their eight encounters, Pakistan had maintained a clean slate with seven consecutive wins, a streak that Afghanistan interrupted emphatically, signalling their emerging dominance in the sport.

The Teams Behind the Game

Pakistan’s Playing XI: Abdullah Shafique, Imam-ul-Haq, Babar Azam (capt), Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Saud Shakeel, Iftikhar Ahmed, Shadab Khan, Usama Mir, Hasan Ali, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Haris Rauf.

Afghanistan’s Playing XI: Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Ibrahim Zadran, Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi (capt), Azmatullah Omarzai, Ikram Alikhil (wk), Mohammad Nabi, Rashid Khan, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Naveen-ul-Haq, Noor Ahmad.
