Afghanistan play their first test match

India - Afghanistan

A day of rejoicing in Kabul.

The Afghanis finished the day on the receiving end of 347 for 6 against the powerful Indian team. It sounds grim but it could have been a lot worse. If they can restrict the Indians to 450 then they may have a chance of a draw if they bat well. Rain might help them as well.

What is the sport? ...

Cricket I assume.

I once had a co-worker who was from England.

One day I asked him to help me understand how the game of cricket is played?

He looked at me and said, "I could explain it to you for 3 days, and you'd still be none the wiser". ....

I spoke too soon. India blew away the Afghans who demonstarted that they are well short of Test level at the moment.
i hope they arent discouraged by this. Pretty much every test debutant gets beaten first time up. And India in India is a huge ask.

Great gesture by the Indians as well.
