In this way, Afghanistan's journey in the T20 World Cup 2024 ended here. After this defeat, disappointment was seen in the Afghanistan camp. Captain Rashid Khan himself also looked disappointed, but the statement he gave after the match was heart-winning. Let us also tell you what Rashid Khan said?

After the match, Afghanistan captain Rashid Khan said that it was tough for us as a team. We could have performed better than this, but the circumstances did not allow us to do what we wanted to do. T20 cricket is like this, you should be ready for all situations. I think they bowled really well. We had good success in this tournament because the fast bowlers bowled really well, you need a good start.

Rashid said that I think we were unlucky with Mujeeb's injury, but our fast bowlers and even Nabi bowled brilliantly with the new ball. This made our job easier as spinners. We have enjoyed this tournament. We will accept playing in the semi-finals and losing to a top team like Africa. This is just the beginning for us, we have the confidence and belief to beat any team. We just need to continue our process.
