<p>“Once again, in celebration of Afghanistan’s triumph, dancing with @IrfanPathan! @singh_harbhajan Once again, a special thank you for your support, Mujeeb wrote.</p>
<p>Pathan has nothing but appreciation for Afghanistan for their efforts to qualify for the semifinals.

<p>What Jonathan Trott taught us</p>
<p>Afghanistan’s captain, Shahidi, said on how head coach Jonathan Trott helped him play and lead to his full potential at the post-match show.</p>
<p>“Very content and pleased with the group. We are pleased with how we did in each of the three categories. We gained a lot of confidence and trust from the last game that we can pursue any sort of aim. The bowlers had a very polished effort today. We feel confident since everyone of the management and coaching staff is working hard, Shahidi said.</p>
<p>“Jonathan (Trott), in particular, is usually encouraging. He said one thing to me before the Pakistan game that really altered my perspective. I’m attempting to lead from the front as a captain, and I’ll keep trying to do so for the duration of the competition,” he said.</p>
