Months after threatening to disturb cricket's established order during the ODI World Cup in India, the Afghans have arrived in the Americas hunting a first global trophy. Realistically speaking, Rashid Khan & Co. have the wherewithal to pull off such a feat.
The opportunity, of course, is the ninth edition of the T20 World Cup, being co-hosted by the United States of America and the West Indies. The Afghans have been camping in the Caribbean. And a few days after vanquishing Scotland and playing their part in an incomplete warm-up match against Oman in Port of Spain (Trinidad and Tobago), they are in Guyana for a clash against debutants Uganda.
Afghanistan, ranked 10th in the ICC T20 rankings, are the obvious favourites. But Uganda, who qualified for the global showpiece via Africa Qualifier, boast a battle-hardened squad and can surprise any team on their day.
