If Afghanistan was that put themselves in position to compete for the test center in 2018, they will be heavily dependent on one of the most characters entertaining cricket, and Mohammed Shahzad.Shahzad, who ransacked yesterday his second century in a row in the Confederations Cup - three has made public the tournament consists of eight participant countries - and drew international acclaim during the event global ICC T20 recently as much about the exotic for its ability actions (although he admired with the latter also did not) as Afghanistan rose in 10S Super phases of fire in the best in the world. Far from intimidated by the company, Hafez rounder and not keeper-batsman anger. From paceman prominent in the past decade, he noted: "I love playing Dale Steyn, Dale Steyn is not serious." And when he overthrew the winners of the tournament in the end the West Indies in the final group match, he led the way with its own version of the dance "hero." He praised the strength of cricket, it is likely to be interpreted as arrogance Shahzad theater, but as a former refugee, playing for the underdogs in the end, it was embraced with the good spirit in which it was intended without doubt. Chris Gayle celebrated heartily with the Afghans and praised the character Shahzad refreshing worldwide when Afghanistan finished T20 world with a new army entirely from friends and followers.Now they seek likely shot to enter the cricket test, through the Confederations Cup, where he is currently sitting in fifth place behind Ireland and the Netherlands Hong Kong and Scotland. Winners names in this tournament - scheduled for 2018 - will play against the lowest level of the test team in place to get an official test center. Afghanistan tied with Scotland in the affair affected by the rains in June, then crush Papua New Guinea 201 runs in November. At present, they are well in front after two days of action against Namibia later, Shahzad and 139 in the upper part to help them 162 long lead roles first. Shahzad is no stranger to big runs scored in the level of participants. The right-hander four ODI hundreds against his name and one in the Twenty20 cricket, and the result was that his rise to NO.8 in the rankings of the ICC T20 earlier this year. Probably the best hand at the Confederations Cup, when wonderful 214no such as Afghanistan chased 494 in the fourth rounds to stun Canada, and in 17 games at first-class level, he averages 51, with three hundred fifty eight. Strangely, Shahzad was not part of the historical players the team Afghanistan who participated in the World Cup finals in 2015, as a new path selectors sought a man they fear its dimensions may not be able to touch them. Tellingly, it was the new coach Inzamam-ul-right that brought him back into the fold, and he continued to enhance his reputation as a winner ever since, scoring more runs for his country than anyone number as they try to climb the ladder Confederations Cup. An outright victory over Namibia push them into third place, with a match against Ireland (I) and the Netherlands (second) is yet to come.
