Afghanistan have been one of the most impressive teams in the tournament, thrashing Sri Lanka 5-0 in the semi-final. A major reason for their high standards is the fact that of the 20 players in the Afghan squad, 15 ply their trade in foreign countries, mostly in Denmark, Germany, US, Bahrain and Malaysia.
