Afghan cricketers catch England by surprise in India tournament

Afghanistan’s cricketers are all but out of this year’s World Twenty20 tournament in India.

They sit bottom of their group after two losses in the Super 10s and are facing England right now in Delhi.

But seem to have caught the English by surprise.... They've reduced them to 107 for seven - Nabi and Khan have both taken 2 wickets.

Afghanistan's team has only been playing internationally for the past 15 years, but has risen steadily in the rankings.
