According to Afghanistan's coach Jonathan Trott, his team is in the t20 world cup 2024 semifinals not merely to play but also to win. afghanistan made history when they defeated bangladesh to become the first team to ever go to the final four of a major international Cricket Council tournament. In the competition, the team captained by Rashid Khan emerged victorious from two formidable groups that included the West Indies, australia, New Zealand, India, and New Zealand.
 

Before the semi-final match, Trott acknowledged to the media that his team did concede a lot of runs during their exciting victory against Bangladesh. The afghanistan coach, nevertheless, stated that going into the semifinal match, they will be really optimistic and have nothing to lose. Trott believes they will have an advantage over south africa because of their victories over formidable opponents like australia and New Zealand.
 

We simply need to improve as a batting team overall since we let up a lot of runs. Sure, it wasn't the best wicket-taking, but in many cases, simply by playing ball by ball, we wasted a lot of opportunities to smash singles or even try to hit it in the gaps. However, it was a somewhat limited experience. I wonder if it's nervousness all over the place. But hey, we have nothing to lose now that we're in the semifinal. Extremely bullish going forward. We don't, however, feel as though we are simply competing in the semi-final."

"Our goal is to triumph in the semifinal. We've noticed that we've defeated a few elite teams. We've prevailed handily. Our victory was narrow. We've prevailed in tight games. Thus, that will be really helpful to us as we go to the semifinal," Trott said.
