Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu joined the chorus of cheers for the Indian cricket team, commonly referred to as the “Men in Blue,” as they continued their winning streak in the ICC Cricket World Cup. In a match against Afghanistan, the Indian team showcased their cricketing prowess, earning a well-deserved victory.

Expressing his enthusiasm and support for the national team, Chief Minister Khandu remarked, “The winning streak of Team India continues. Congratulations #MeninBlue on your impressive victory against Afghanistan in #ICCCricketWorldCup. My best wishes for your next match on Sunday.”

“The match was marked by a historic achievement, with Indian skipper Rohit Sharma scoring the fastest century by an Indian in a World Cup. This remarkable feat played a pivotal role in India’s commanding 8-wicket victory against Afghanistan. The local hero, Virat Kohli, also contributed significantly to the win by securing a half-century on a batting-friendly pitch”.

In the contest, Afghanistan’s captain, Hashmatullah Shahidi, along with Azmatullah Omarzai, led their team’s resistance against India’s strong bowling attack. They concluded their innings with a competitive total of 272/8 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. Jasprit Bumrah was the standout bowler, finishing with impressive figures of 4/39.

“The match saw Shahidi winning the toss and choosing to bat on a sweltering afternoon in New Delhi. India made a strategic change to their lineup by replacing off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin with seam-bowling all-rounder Shardul Thakur”.
