Loading ...The fairy tale continues! Great tournament, with worthy winners. Afghanistan now only have to beat Denmark and Bermuda and they’re in the Super 8’s of the qualifier, and then who knows what could happen?
Afghanistan into World Cup Qualifiers

Well, they’ve bloody done it. Afghanistan have won the World Cricket League Division 3, thus (as all Corridor readers know too well) permitting them entry into the Qualifiers in South Africa. It’s the final hurdle to participating in the 2011 World Cup.
I mentioned last week a piece in The Times by Tim Albone previewing the tournament and the Afghans. What I forgot to mention is that he’s making a documentary all about them. The trailer – 10 whole minutes in fact – deserves your attention.

Well Afganistan can beat Denmark but i dont think that they will be able to beat Bermuda. What is your point about this Rich B?.

Well, Afghanistan say their first much against Denmark is a must win match and then they would target one other team, probably UAE or Bermuda. Only some months ago, Afghanistan was 11 runs short of overcoming to UAE in ACC Elite Cup. With the newcomers in the squad and the experience of Division 3, and of course with the thirst to win, I believe they would do it through Super 8.
