With this victory, Afghanistan climbed to fifth place in the World Cup 2023 points table, firmly positioning themselves in the race for the semi-finals. Afghanistan have defeated three former world champions in the ongoing ODI World Cup, including the defending champions England, the 1992 champions Pakistan, and the 1996 winners Sri Lanka.

Irfan Pathan also took to the social media platform X(formerly Twitter) to commend Afghanistan's excellent performance, emphasising their control throughout the game. Afghanistan successfully chased down 242 runs with 7 wickets and 20 balls to spare against Sri Lanka in Pune.

“The chase from Afghanistan was so controlled that at every point of time they were in total control. Professional stuff. In the Indian conditions if you know how to play spin well and bowl spin well then you will be in the game. Afghans certainly have those qualities now,” he said.

After their triumph against Sri Lanka, Afghanistan are now gearing up to face the Netherlands, with the upcoming match scheduled for November 3 at Lucknow's Ekana Stadium.
