5 biggest upsets in World T20 history that don't fade away

Afghanistan v West Indies – 2016 World T20

Bangladesh pulled off the upset of the tournament after their win over West Indies the other night.

West Indies had already qualified for the semi-final and in a ruthless fashion no less. They tormented South Africa, England and Sri Lanka on the way while stamping themselves as one of the favourites to win the tournament.

Afghanistan, on the other hand, have been teasing the other teams for a while now. They played exceptionally well, and also gave hope to their fans, against South Africa, Sri Lanka and England and might as well have won those games had they had experience.

And they finally got their win vs the group leaders – the seemingly indomitable West Indies.

Posting a meagre score of 123, the game looked already over due to the destructive batting line-up that West Indies possesses. However, some exceptional bowling on a collective level from the Afghans hindered West Indies as they could only muster a poor 117.

This result made them the first team to beat West Indies this tournament as they exited the tournament on a high. The future is definitely bright for Afghanistan.
