Afghanistan Beat West Indies, Rashid 7 Fer, Rips through the batting lineup
Two Upsets in Two days.
Legendary LBG Spinner R Khan has simply staggered the batsmen of the West Indies, truly a new low for. Afghanistan really need to get test status, they are just too good.

Rashid seems to be a one-man bowling line-up. Frig even Afghanistan have a world-class leggie!

They keep putting up performances, need to give them test status so the current players are the first generation test players and can help guide the next generation otherwise it will be a bit more difficult for them to get going at test level.

Remember when we easily white washed West Indies back in 2009? Well the same thing happened here. After IPL West Indian cricket specially. in ODIs and tests/ other non-competition games have gone downhill. It's sad to see Brian Lara's legacy reduced to this.
I don't even recognize a single player in the squad beside Jason Holder. The win was against an inexperienced, young West Indies side. But great work from the Afghans nevertheless. There is a chance that West Indies might not be playing the 2019 World Cup at all.. I would much rather see Ireland and Afghanistan than this pathetically weak WI team.

Them boys are more interested in dancehall and soca...too much partying going on., which is not that too bad,.
We should sack our batting coach.
They debut Roston Chase in this match, Rashid Khan is better than tahir in my opinion. The kid (I use this term loosely since his age is uncertain) is top notch, top shotta.
They need to play more against the top sides in world cricket.

This is nothing new, 4 years ago in Guyana, Afridi recorded the best figured for a leg spinner, with figures of 7/12
Saw that game live.
We always were too fazed with leggies

I have seen the match. there were atleast 20 sure wicket deliveries from Rashid Khan.
I would like to see him bowling on the same pitch and replicating same bowling to India team. I am sure india would lose at least 5 wickets too.
