I wonder if that Afghanistan team has fled and are now playing in exile, or they'll go back?

Not sure, I don't think they've 'fled' as such, though I think some of them must be based overseas anyway. There was some talk about the national side being boycotted if the Taliban refused to allow the women's team to carry on playing, but I don't know what happened to that.

I was thinking along similar lines, to have a team of that quality from Afghanistan is incredible. I have never heard of an international going to Afghanistan to play. How do they get the experience to be as good as they are and who finances them?

Wow! Australia have been completely destroyed!! The England bowlers played a blinder to bowl the Aussies out for 125, then Buttler ripped into them with the bat, scoring 71 off just 32 balls! England win by 8 wickets after just 11.4 overs. Amazing stuff! :bow: :dance:

England after a shaky start 163 for 4, Sri Lanka 137 all out, a good all round performance, only 2 extras Englands fielding and bowling superb. Buttler 101 not out.
