Only five teams remain in the fray! This started off as an 8 team event. England is the latest casualty. Buttler and his men would be hurting. It must be feeling England of pre 2015 when their ICC event performances weren't that great. But the 2019 WC champions would find this as a tough pill to swallow. They finished 7th on the table in the 2023 WC. And now have been knocked out here. They scored 300 in both the games but couldn't defend once and failed to chase it tonight. Fairy tales and Afghanistan have been synonymous for some time. And they have added another fable to it. They will be facing the mighty Aussies next and it promises to be a fascinating affair as well. For the moment Kabul will reverberate with the names of Ibrahim Zadran and Azmatullah. Our energies were well spent today. We will be back soon with more cricketing action. Our team of Akshay Maanay, Abhinav Guha, Venky and Kumar Abhisekh Das says ta ta ta!

Hashmatullah Shahidi: As a team we are happy. Our nation will be happy with this win. Moving on to the next game. We beat them first time in 2023. We are improving day by day. Today was a tense game. We controlled it well. I am happy with the result. Zadran is a talented guy. We were three down at the beginning and the pressure was on. The partnership between me and him was crucial. One of the best ODI knocks that I have seen. Azmat played a good knock. Played with positive intent. He bowled crucial overs as well. We have talented youngsters and some senior guys. Everyone knows their role. Everyone is doing good. Hopefully, we will take the momentum to the game versus Australia. It will give us confidence but it will be a new day. That game will decide who will go to the semis. We will do what is good for us on that day.

Jos Buttler: Disappointing to be knocked out of the tournament early. We had our chances in the game and we didn't take them. Root played an unbelievable innings and we needed one of the top six batters to stay with him. The last 10 overs got away from us a bit. Credit to Ibrahim, he played a fantastic innings. 113 off the last 10 pushed them up to a very good score on that pitch. Unfortunately in his 4th over he (Wood) felt his knee, credit to him for bowling through the pain and showing a lot of character. It was difficult (in the death overs with Wood injured and Root bowling the 47th over), Livi was also off the field but credit to him for coming back. He (Root) has been a brilliant player in all formats and showed us the way to handle the pressure. His ODI record is fantastic. If I knew I wouldn't be playing the way I am (referring to his bad form), being one of the best players in the world it is disappointing when you don't perform. Don't want to make any emotional decisions.

22:18 Local Time, 17:18 GMT, 22:48 IST: Afghanistan have picked up their first win. Pakistan, Bangladesh and now England are out of CT 2025. Azmatullah was awarded the ICC ODI player of the year and you know why! He turned the game around with the bat first and then struck five blows to dwarf Root's ton. Afghanistan and their big runs in ICC events continue. They would be chuffed with this win. Earlier, Zadran played one of the knocks of the Champions Trophy across all editions with a massive 177. He single handedly gave Afghanistan 325 to play with. England didn't start well. But Root and Duckett batted well to keep them in touch with the rate. But Duckett fell. Brook and Buttler got starts but fell. Those wickets got Afghanistan back in the game. Then when Root fell, Atcher came in and hit some boundaries. It seemed England had the edge but then Overton played a poor shot to hole out at long-on. Post that Farooqi and Azmatullah managed to squeeze out the win. Azmat was carried on a player's shoulder as he almost carried his team's bowling on his able shoulders throughout the chase. This was an epic game and am sure won't be forgotten for a long time to come. They were supposed to be the giant killers but they are doing this at regular intervals at the top level.

Ibrahim Zadran | Player of the Match: I was expecting that, I wanted to grab one good catch for the team. Whenever I grabbed it, that feeling was great. It means a lot to me, as much as you work hard, I was having trust on myself and I wanted to keep on batting. That 177 is a special moment for me. We have played here last time in Asia Cup, so I had the idea. I wanted to take time and play proper cricketing shots and that worked for me so I’m happy. When you win a game, it gives you a lot of energy and it gives you confidence. We will try to play even better play in the next game. We will be playing against Australia so we will try to do as less mistakes as possible. We will have a plan and do our best.
