Jubilant dance after the win!

After their historic win over Pakistan, Afghanistan continued their impressive run in the ongoing ODI World Cup with a victory over Sri Lanka yesterday. Having won the toss, Afghanistan elected to field first and restricted Sri Lanka to 241, thanks to a four-wicket haul from Fazalhaq Farooqui. Sri Lanka's batting was disappointing, with several batters getting starts but failing to convert them into substantial contributions.

Afghanistan chased down the target with ease, thanks to half-centuries from Ibrahim Zadran, Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi, and Azmatullah Omarzai. The Afghans reached the target in 45.2 overs, losing just three wickets. Afghanistan's victory was a clinical one, and it once again proved that they are a team to be reckoned with in this World Cup. They have a well-balanced side with a good mix of experience and youth. Their bowling attack is particularly potent, and their batting has also been extremely impressive in recent matches.

This was Afghhanistan's third win in the ongoing ODI World Cup and it is a massive achievement, considering that they had won only one game in their previous two campaigns combined.

Irfan Pathan and Harbhajan Singh Celebrate Afghanistan's Win (Again)

As we have seen in recent times, Irfan Pathan is a massive supporter of Afghanistan Cricket. After Afghanistan defeated Pakistan last week, Pathan who was on commentary duty, joined the Afghan team on the field to celebrate their win and was even seen dancing with Rashid Khan. To support Pathan, India's star spinner Harbhajan Singh also joined and danced after Afghanistan's victory. 

Irfan Pathan while sharing pictures of the celebration on social media, captioned the post "Rashid Khan fulfilled his promise and I fulfilled mine. Well, done guys @ICC @rashidkhan_19."

Yesterday, after Afghanistan's latest win, Pathan was once again ecstatic and he along with Harbhajan Singh celebrated the occasion by dancing in the Star Sports studio. The video was shared on social media by Mohammed Nabi, Rashid Khan and Mujeeb Zadran. Pathan's celebration of Afghanistan's win was a heartwarming gesture that showed his love for the sport of cricket and his respect for the Afghan team. It was a moment that will be cherished by Afghan fans for many years to come.

Afghanistan have three matches remaining in the ODI World Cup, and they will look to give their absolute best to push for a semi-final spot. If that happens, it will be a massive win not only for Afghanistan Cricket but for the sport overall.
