TBH I can understand why some people like Brendon and Flintoff put Afghanistan ahead, as its due to Rashid Khan's success in the IPL mainly and to some extent hidden sympathy. And tbh they did give India, SL and Pakistan a run for their money.
However I dont think they are above SL no matter how bad the team has become.
I think Afghanistan is slightly better than the other associates and could be at par with Zimbabwe. Nothing more than that.
I dont think they dont really have that batting depth to play a longer format than t20.
