Afghanistan continued their dream World Cup campaign by registering their fourth victory at the tournament, defeating Netherlands by seven wickets on Friday. Afghanistan climbed to fifth in the standings with eight points, behind New Zealand on net run-rate. The top four teams move into the last four.
Earlier, Mujeeb Ur Rahman struck in the first over when he trapped opener Wesley Barresi lbw to claim his 100th ODI wicket and the next four Dutch batters were all run out after mix-ups. Max O'Dowd looked set for a big score with nine fours but was run out by fine work in the deep from Azmatullah Omarzai, who shattered the stumps with a direct hit as the opener's dive was in vain.
