AFG give rude shock to Australia
Afghanistan slayed the demons of that heartbreaking loss to Australia in the ODI World Cup with a 21-run victory. AFG, who needed a victory to stay in contention for a spot in the semi-final, overwhelmed the Australians with their attacking batting, on-spot bowling and enthusiastic fielding.
