Afghanistan spinners bamboozled England and gave them a shock in this 2016 World T20 group stage match at Feroz Shah Kotla stadium in New Delhi on March 23. There is no upset till now in this World T20. But, it seems now that Afghanistan will give a lesson to England, who chased the highest total ever in World T20 beating South Africa chasing down 229. Afghanistan spinner Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi were unplayable for England batsmen. They lost their wickets like a pack of cards. This unliveable performance from Afghanistan woke up everyone from siesta. England managed to score 142 for 7 with the help of Moeen Ali’s 41.
Thank god for Moeen Ali #WT20 #ENG getting our score somewhere near respectable … Gonna need to be tight bowling #EngvAfg

Umar Akmal is ranked lower than Muhammad Shahzad of Afghanistan in T20 Internationals. Let’s blame TTP for this.#EngvAfg #T20WC

What a shambles. Schoolboy errors early on & now knocking half-trackers to ring fielders. Anything less than 160 won’t be enough #EngvAfg

#AFG fielding belies their coach’s abilities. Can’t believe Inzamam is their coach ? #EngvAfg #WT20
