Afghanistan players took to the field against India in Delhi wearing black armbands as a tribute to the lives lost in an earthquake back home. 

Over 2,000 people were killed after an earthquake of 6.3 magnitude struck western Afghanistan last week, also causing widespread damage of property. 

On Wednesday, the same region was hit by another quake of the same magnitude, injuring over 100 people, according to news agencies.
