T20 World Cup 2024: The coming three days are going to be very special for cricket fans around the world. In fact, both the semi-finals of the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 will be played on 27 June and the final of the tournament will be played on 29 June.

South Africa and Afghanistan will face each other in the first semi-final. However, before this match, a very bad news is coming out for the Afghan team. This team is going to be out of the World Cup without playing. Let us tell you the whole thing in this article.

Afghanistan will be out of T20 World Cup 2024!

The Trinidad ground will host the first semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2024 on June 27. On this day, South Africa and Afghanistan (AFG vs RSA) will play against each other. While on one hand the African team has reached the last-4 by defeating West Indies, on the other hand Afghanistan achieved this feat by defeating Bangladesh.

However, Rashid Khan's team will hardly be able to reach beyond the semi-finals. In fact, according to the weather department, there is a possibility of heavy rain with strong winds on this day. In such a situation, if this match is cancelled, South Africa will get a huge benefit. In such a situation, due to being at the top of the points table in the Super-8, this team will directly play the final.

The performance so far has been spectacular

Afghanistan has surprised everyone during the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. This team, ranked 10th in the T20 rankings, defied the predictions of all cricket experts.

The Afghan team defeated New Zealand during the group stage. Not only this, they created a sensation by defeating world champion Australia in the Super-8. After this defeat, the Kangaroo team was out of the tournament. Now South Africa will stand with this team in the semi-finals.
