Gulbadin Naib’s exceptional bowling performance led Afghanistan to a thrilling 21-run victory over previously undefeated Australia in a Group One Super Eight encounter of the T20 World Cup. The win keeps both teams in contention for semi-final spots heading into the final round of group matches.
Delhi Capitals (DC) have signed Afghan all-rounder Gulbadin Naib as a replacement for injured Australian Mitchell Marsh in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Naib, who will make his IPL debut, has impressive T20I credentials with two half-centuries in the recent India-Afghanistan series. Despite Marsh’s absence for the season, DC’s head coach Ricky Ponting has expressed optimism about the team’s performance.
