Afghanistan want to show the world they belong at the World Cup - and they've set their sights on taking down Australia in order to prove their point.
Australia will start as raging favourites when they take on Afghanistan at the WACA Ground on Wednesday.
Boasting the likes of Mitchell Starc, Mitchell Johnson, Josh Hazlewood, and James Faulkner, Australia possess a pace battery capable of inflicting mass damage on the cricketing minnows.
But if Afghanistan are scared, they're certainly not showing it.
"We're not just here to complete a fixture. We're here to win," defiant coach Andy Moles said.
"We understand it's highly unlikely. But we have a belief we can do it. We have to be 100 per cent in batting, bowling, and fielding, and Australia have to be way down in one of their areas.
"If we have the rub of the green and a little bit of panic sets into the opposition, (then we're a chance)."
Plans are afoot to cut the number of nations appearing at the next World Cup from 14 to 10.
If that eventuates, countries like Afghanistan, United Arab Emirates, and Scotland are likely to be squeezed out.
Afghanistan have already beaten Scotland at this World Cup, and they were ultra competitive against Sri Lanka in a four-wicket loss.
