In the T20 World Cup 2024 semi-final, Afghanistan were bowled out for a record-low 56 runs by South Africa. After choosing to bat at Brian Lara Stadium, Afghanistan’s innings fell apart from the start, with Rahmanullah Gurbaz out for a duck. Marco Jansen (3-16), Kagiso Rabada, and Anrich Nortje exploited their weaknesses, while Tabraiz Shamsi’s 3-6 dismantled the lower order. Captain Rashid Khan managed only 8 runs, marking a historic collapse and ending Afghanistan's tournament hopes.
