Desi Cartman Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 It seems some in Kabul may still need a little more education about cricket. Well, the Americans in Kabul, at least. With Afghanistan making their cricket World Cup debut in a group match against Bangladesh in Canberra on Wednesday, someone in the US Embassygot a little excited, jumping the gun with their congratulations to the national team via Twitter. The tweet congratulated the Afghan national team for notching a win over their opponents. The match was only about 10 overs old at the time, with Bangladesh batting first against their lowly-rated opponents.
