Cricket: The Melbourne Renegades handed a thumping upset win over defending WBBL champions Adelaide Strikers at the Junction Oval.
Kayo Bites WBBL: Renegades v Strikers | 05:28Afghanistan put on a superb batting and bowling display to hand Pakistan a stunning eight-wicket defeat in the Cricket World Cup on Monday.
The win is Afghanistan’s first-ever over Pakistan in eight ODIs and came eight days after their shock victory over defending champions England, who are now bottom of the World Cup ladder.“This win tastes nice,” said Shahidi. “The way we chased was very professional and the way we did that will help us going into our other games now.
In contrast, Afghanistan’s campaign is slightly revived with two wins in five matches and struggling Sri Lanka as their next opponents in Pune on Sunday. The victory for Afghanistan comes at a time of tense political and diplomatic relations between the two neighbours. Azam’s 92-ball knock was complemented by Shafique’s 75-ball 58 while Shadab Khan and Iftikhar Ahmed scored a valuable 40 runs apiece.
