""Obviously very disappointed," says Darren Sammy, "but there's no doubt we're not going to let this dampen ours spirits.
"We just need to find a way to chase down those small totals. This was the only game we could afford to lose in terms of winning the cup. We have two more games, so we have to regroup and come back strongly."
My last match for a while - it's been a fun stint, and perhaps I'll see you around again some time. I'm Will Luke, thanks for joining us this evening, and don't forget about India v Australia (as if) - coming up very shortly. T'ra.
Najibullah is named Player of the Match but injured himself in that incredible final catch, so he's in the changing rooms.
6.20pm A lovely moment just now as Gayle joins in the celebrations with Afghanistan and Shahzad. That might be my moment of the tournament. Shahzad demands a selfie, and eventually the entire team crowd round Gayle in front of the cameras. I'm sure we'll have the shot for you shortly. Cricket is a wonderful sport.
And there's Inzi! Broad smile on his face. A wonderful victory in so many ways. They've shown what Associate cricketers can bring to a global tournament, and to do it in their last match is quite telling, too. Difficult for administrators to ignore a win like this, or the inevitable clamour that there will be by former players to give Afghanistan and co more matches against Full Members.
Shahzad leads the celebrations as Fletcher trudges off disconsolate. Afghanistan's last match of the tournament and what an effort - and what celebrations! They're all dancing, singing "Champions! Champions!"
8 from 1 ( :~ )
They've almost done it!!
Fletcher only has one leg. His other is injured - bust his hamstring. But it's up to him to try and get West Indies 9 from 2
Fletcher is back. He's injured, but he's back. 10 from 3
That was quite remarkable. To take that, on the run, under that pressure - what a snaffle.
CR Brathwaite c Najibullah Zadran b Mohammad Nabi 13 (11m 8b 0x4 2x6) SR: 162.50
10 from 4. This is ridiculous!
Around the wicket
Here we go!
Ten needed off the final over. They shouldn't have got themselves into this position, though Afghanistan have been quite excellent in the field. Rashid the stand-out.
Afghanistan are a side who identify with their Pashtun brother in heart, mind and cricket
A tetchy Darren Sammy said West Indies' batsmen did not take the responsibility to chase down a rather small target - 124 - against Afghanistan
They don't want to be patronised or praised for potential. Afghanistan want to play Full Members and beat them, just like they did against West Indies
Having threatened to pull off a win over a big team in their first three matches of the Super 10 stage, Afghanistan finally went ahead and did it against the group-topping West Indies in Nagpur
A slow surface that makes strokeplay difficult and large outfields in Nagpur can be turned into Afghanistan's favour
