00:00The first news is from the field of play. South Africa reached the final of T20 World Cup.
00:05The second defeat, South Africa scored 57 runs in just 5 overs on one wicket.
00:12The whole team of Afghanistan scored 56 runs in the 12th over.
00:1610 players of Afghanistan could not enter the double figure.
00:20Only Azmatullah scored 10 runs.
00:23This was the new Afghan record of Muhammad Nabi being out 8 times on 0.
00:29Gulbadeen 9, Rashid Khan and Kareem Jannat 8, while Ibrahim Zidane scored 2 runs.
00:35Rehmanullah, Noor Ahmed and Muhammad Nabi could not open the account.
00:39Marco Johnson and Tabrez Shamsi scored 3-3 and Rabada scored 2-2.
00:44We will talk more with Sports Editor Zahid Maqsood.
00:47Zahid sahib, whatever you saw today, it was the performance of Afghanistan in the semi-final.
00:51What happened to Afghanistan in the semi-final after reaching the semi-final?
00:55Afghanistan is almost in the top 9.
00:58But as Captain Rashid Khan said later, it is a great success for them that their team reached the semi-final for the first time.
01:05And then Australia, Bangladesh, Duttonworth and Louis Safanullah.
01:10I think Afghanistan won the task today and batted first.
01:14And they relied more on their bowling side so that they can score well.
01:19And then they will stop the batting line of South Africa because their bowling is very strong.
01:23But this could not happen because their bowling and batting failed.
01:27They could only make 56 runs.
01:29Umar Zahid, Azmatullah Umar Zahid, could only make 10 runs.
01:31And any Nabi Tulli, who was bowling for South Africa, Marco Johnson,
01:34Tabrez Shamsi and Marco Johnson also took 3 wickets.
01:39Overall, South Africa's bowling was very good.
01:42Rashid Khan said later that we will learn from our mistakes.
01:46Our opening is very good.
01:48We need to work in the middle order.
01:50Rashid Khan also said that it is a great success for them
01:54that they reached the semi-final with such a big team.
01:58So, basically, it is obvious that Afghanistan made mistakes
02:02because they relied more on Rehmanullah Gorbaz and Ibrahim Zadran, who are their openers.
02:07When the openers were out, their line lagged.
02:09No one was able to stand in front of Nabi Tulli's bowling.
02:11And if you look at South Africa,
02:13the blame that was put on them,
02:16and they were out in every important tournament.
02:20Before this, they were out 5 times in the T20 World Cup,
02:24the 50-over World Cup semi-final,
02:26and 2 times in the T20 World Cup semi-final.
02:30In 2009, Pakistan defeated South Africa in the semi-final.
02:34And in 2014, South Africa lost again when India defeated them.
02:38Now, this was the third time that they were playing in the semi-final.
02:41Overall, South Africa played a great game.
02:46If we compare it with other Asian teams,
02:48South Africa's team doesn't look as heavy on paper.
02:52But the team played well.
02:54The bowling line showed a great game.
02:56And obviously, there was only one out, one chance.
02:58Afghanistan could have gotten it.
03:00If they had taken the review,
03:02Aden Markram would have been out.
03:04But I think the score was very low.
03:06And South Africa won a one-sided match.
03:08But despite this match,
03:10an excellent record was made here.
03:12Mohammad Nabi has become an Afghan character
03:14who has been out eight times.
03:16Before that, Rashid Khan has been out seven times.
03:22Thank you very much, Sports Editor Zahid Waqsoo.
