Before the start of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, former West Indian legendary cricketer Brian Lara’s prediction about Afghanistan came true.
Afghanistan qualified for the semi-finals for the first time by defeating Bangladesh by 8 runs under the Duckworth-Lewis method in the last match of the Super 8 stage of T20 World Cup on Tuesday.
Before the start of the T20 World Cup, former cricketers had predicted the 4 semi-finalist teams of the event.
Most of the former cricketers took the names of India, England, Australia and South Africa.
However, former West Indian cricketer Brian Lara predicted the Afghanistan team to reach the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup.
Fortunately, after the victory against Bangladesh, the Afghanistan team reached the semi-finals of the World Cup and Brian Lara’s prediction also came true.
This is the reason why, after reaching the semi-finals, Rashid Khan, the captain of the Afghan cricket team, said, ‘It’s unbelievable, Brian Lara was the only person who predicted us to reach the semi-finals and we proved him right. ‘.
It should be noted that after Afghanistan reached the semi-finals, the lineup of semi-finalist teams in the T20 World Cup 2024 has been completed.
India and Afghanistan have qualified from Group 1, while England and South Africa have qualified from Group 2.
