Once again @ACBofficials prove they are a force to be reckoned with, could’ve easily won 3 #AsiaCup matches. Can’t wait to see how many teams they roll in the #WorldCup next year! #IndvAfg

Afghanistan were so close to winning all five matches they played. Whoever wins this Asia cup, it will be remembered more for Afghanistan’s exploits. .#AsiaCup

What a disappointment that Afghanistan are not in the finals of this tournament. Fair to say the two best sides of this tournament competed hard and gave us all a nail bitting thriller. #INDvAFG
