SL vs AFG Highlights: Afghanistan qualify for World Cup 2023, SriLanka on the BRINK after WASHOUT, Watch Highlights

SL vs AFG Highlights: SL AFG 2nd ODI Highlights: Match Abandoned: Cricket had no luck on Sunday. After IND vs NZ 2nd ODI, rain has played spoilsport thousands of miles away in Pallekele. SL vs AFG 2nd ODI is abandoned as rain plays spoilsport yet again. However, the washout had no effect on Afghanistan’s chances. They have qualified for World Cup 2023. Watch SriLanka vs Afghanistan Highlights with InsideSport.IN

SriLanka began chasing 229 after an excellent comeback with the ball. Despite Rahmanullah Gurbaz (68) and Rahmat Shah’s (58) 113-run stand, Afghanistan folded for 228. Mohammad Nabi slammed 41 off 34 balls. However, only 2.4 overs of play was possible as rain poured down.

The washout means SriLanka fail to level the series. It’s bad news for Dasun Shanaka & Co as they lose out on big points in ICC ODI Super League. SriLanka slip to 10th spot on ODI Super League with 67 points. Afghanistan remain on 7th spot with 115 points but they will remain in Top 8 even if SouthAfrica climb up somehow. As things stand, SriLanka are in a shoot-off with SouthAfrica.
