After losing their opening two encounters, the Afghans took down three former World Cup winners - England, Pakistan and Sri Lanka in consecutive games. The Afghani team also showcased rapid growth as they performed as a unit. The batting took great strides while the bowling continued to spin around webs of mystery against opposition batters.
