5. Afghanistan soar high in World Cup 2023; defeats 3 former World Champions

Afghanistan have always punched above its weight in international cricket. They defeated Pakistan in a T20I series in Sharjah and almost qualified for the second round in Asia Cup 2023. However, their inexperience in ODI cricket made them falter at crucial junctures. 

However, in the ICC World Cup 2023, Afghanistan made the cricketing world sit and take notice of the talent they held. They registered first-ever ODI wins over three former World Cup winners in Pakistan, England, and Sri Lanka and almost handed the eventual champions Australia a defeat. Afghanistan were in contention for semi-final qualification as well at one stage of the ODI World Cup.
