Afghanistan has done well in their opening game against the in-form Indians.
They have definitely heightened expectations for the future.
Today they play South Africa and although they are not expected to win but provide a decent performance.
Current Odds: 1.03 : 27(www.Betfair.com)
Tip: From my point of view even if Afganistan is tipped to lose but upsets to happen. And 27 are great odds for Afganistan.
Caution:Don't put a lot of investment behind it as this is just a underdog strategy.
They have a short but stellar history
