Afghanistan Team News & Playing 11
AFG Team News
Afghanistan has a strong spin attack and they will not look for any change in the playing 11 after a big win in the last match.
AFG Key Players
- Rahmanullah Gurbaz – Gurbaz is still leading the leading run scorers list of the T20 World Cup 2024. He has accumulated 238 runs in 6 innings at a brilliant strike rate of 141.66. On the pitches where some of the top white-ball batters are struggling, Gurbaz is showing others how to settle well on these difficult pitches before going for big shots confidently.
- Ibrahim Zadran – Zadran surely has to be the second key batter for AFG as he is just behind Gurbaz in the list with 211 runs at a good average of 35.16 in 6 matches. He is making this pair the best opening pair of this T20 World Cup.
- Fazalhaq Farooqi – Farooqi is the leading wicket taker of the tournament with 15 wickets in 6 matches at an average of 8.93. The pitch here offers good assistance to the pacers so we can back him to pick wickets in this match.
- Rashid Khan – The skipper is having a ball with an iconic win against Australia under his helm. Along with his captaincy, Rashid is also making a difference with his spin attack. He has picked 10 wickets in 6 matches at a strike rate of 14.4.
AFG Team Form
Afghanistan will be confident after defeating Australia and they surely have all eyes on getting that semi-final spot now.
Afghanistan Predicted Playing 11
Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Ibrahim Zadran, Gulbadin Naib, Azmatullah Omarzai, Mohammad Nabi, Karim Janat, Nangeyalia Kharote, Rashid Khan (c), Noor Ahmad, Naveen-ul-Haq, Fazalhaq Farooqi
Bangladesh Team News & Playing 11
BAN Team News
Bangladesh will play Mahedi Hasan again in this match as the pitch favours the spinners. We back them to go with the same playing 11 as no injuries are reported so far.
BAN Key Players
- Towhid Hridoy – Towhid is the leading run scorer for Bangladesh with 139 runs in 6 matches at a strike rate of 126.36. We are backing him to score more runs in his final game of this world cup.
- Najmul Hossain Shanto – BAN skipper Najmul Hossain played a good knock of 40 off 32 deliveries against India in the last match but did not get support from other players to reach the target. He looked confident with his shot selection and we back him for more runs. He has scored 107 runs in 6 matches at a strike rate of 95.
- Rishad Hossain – Rishad Hossain has picked 11 wickets in 6 matches and he is the leading wicket taker for BAN. He will be a key bowler on this turning track and can be a big threat for AFG batters who rely upon top-order. We expect Shanto to bring him in the early overs to put some pressure.
- Tanzim Hasan Sakib – Tanzim Hasan was brilliant against India where he removed dangerous batters Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav. He is the leading wicket taker along with Rishad, picking 11 wickets at an impressive average of 10.27.
BAN Team Form
Bangladesh has lost their momentum in the super 8 round with back to back defeats. They will try to win this one to exit the tournament with some pride.
