Afghanistan have booked their ticket for the semi-finals in the T20 World Cup 2024. Afghanistan entered the semi-finals for the first time after defeating Bangladesh in the last Super-8 match. Had the result of this match been different, Australia’s fortunes could have brightened. In fact, the Australian team could have reached the semi-finals if Bangladesh had won. As exciting as the Afghanistan vs Bangladesh match was, an incident is constantly in the news. The incident relates to fast bowler Galbadin Naib, who suffered a hamstring injury during the match. Australian captain Mitchell Marsh has reacted to Galbadin.
Marsh says he couldn’t stop laughing at the drama performed by Gulbuddin. “I almost had tears in my eyes laughing. But in the end, it didn’t affect the game. So we can laugh about it now. But it was really fun,” Marsh told cricket.com.au. After seeing the rain in the Bangladesh match, the Afghanistan team was left behind under the Duckworth-Lewis rule and then Gulbadin fell while standing in the slips.
Naib complained of discomfort in the 12th over. He was treated and Navinul Haque took him off the field. After this it started raining and the players went to the dugout. After a while the game resumed and Naib returned to the field in the 13th over. He also took the wicket of Tanzeem Hasan in the 15th over. Indian spinner R Ashwin also shared a post on ‘X’ on Gulbadin’s injury. In which he wrote a red card for Gulbuddin. Responding to Ashwin’s post, Gulbadin wrote, ‘Sometimes happy, sometimes less hamstring.’ He also added a laughing emoji.
