Thanks to our fans for supporting our cricket journey. We have worked hard for the last 2 months and the result is in front of you.
It was not an easy wicket to bat on, the ball was bouncing a lot. I took two wickets in the beginning and continued later. Thanks to Rashid for trusting me. It was a complete team effort. The way Naveen bowled, the way Gurbaz and Ibrahim batted. We finally beat Australia.
This is a big achievement for Afghanistan cricket, our history is not much so this is a big achievement. We played great cricket in the last World Cup and this year we beat New Zealand in the group stage. Our journey has just started. We have a good management and I am very lucky to have this team. Every match is important, we will rest tomorrow and think about it.
