Afghanistan's 21-run victory over Australia in the T20 World Cup has jeopardized Australia's semifinal hopes. Afghanistan's win, led by Gulbadin Naib's 4/20, has put India in a strong position to qualify for the semifinals. Australia must now beat India in their next match and hope Bangladesh defeats Afghanistan to stay in contention. If Australia loses to India and Afghanistan loses to Bangladesh, the team with the better net run rate will advance. India is likely to finish top of the table, while Australia's chances are dwindling. The race for the semifinals is heating up, with Afghanistan and India holding the advantage.
