Achieving this seems nearly impossible, making it a monumental challenge for Babar Azam&#8217;s team.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Afghanistan is also grappling with an uphill battle, needing to defeat South Africa by around 438 runs to keep any hope of qualification alive. Unfortunately, their dream of a first-ever semi-final appearance seems unlikely this time, especially after a heartbreaking defeat against Australia. Despite reducing Australia to 91\/7 in their chase of 292, Glenn Maxwell&#8217;s unbeaten 201, played with &#8216;no footwork&#8217; due to cramps, shattered Afghanistan&#8217;s hopes.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, ahead of Pakistan&#8217;s must-win match against England, Pakistani all-rounder Shadab Khan engaged in some light-hearted training. He imitated Glenn Maxwell&#8217;s famous &#8216;no footwork&#8217; shots in the nets.<\/p>\n<p>Post New Zealand\u2019s win and Shadabs\u2019 training session, Afghanistan\u2019s Naveen-ul-Haq and Rahmanullah Gurbaz posted cryptic Instagram stories.<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>Naveen wrote, \u201cFootwork No Footwork But.
