Afghanistan to keep unlikely qualification hopes alive
Afghanistan could propel themselves into the qualification reckoning with a win over Netherlands on Friday. Afghanistan have overperformed in this tournament, winning three of their six matches, including shock wins over England and Pakistan.
Netherlands have pulled off two shocks of their own, beating Bangladesh and South Africa in massive underdog victories. They remain the only two wins for the Dutch side though, and they’ll need another victory here to keep their own faint hopes of making the semi-finals alive.
Afganistan are the favourites to claim the win here and they should have enough to claim the win and keep their underdog story rolling.
