West Indies Cricket Team Vs Afghanistan National Cricket Team Match Scorecard

West Indies Cricket Team Vs Afghanistan National Cricket Team Match Scorecard – This was a mere ‘warm down’ match but not for West Indies and their fans who turned up at the venue ready to watch their team show their supremacy. The hosts have caused the other teams to think again as to why the particular team has been regarded as one of the ‘giants’ in this format. Afghanistan dominated the bowlers and bundled out the opposition for below 100 in their first three matches but today they allowed the highest total of the tournament. But as Rashid said they now know how to bowl on such wickets and that is the positive they take away. And that sums up the group stage.
