AFG vs IND
AFG vs IND: Overview

It has been less than 24 hours since Afghanistan put up the fight of their lives in defense of a paltry total in Sharjah, and now they will be out in Dubai to play what will be their last fixture in the tournament, which will also be an unimportant match. It was the kind of campaign in which they arrived, they entertained, but now they go with nothing in their hands. However, the team’s valiant performances during the past two weeks should not be diminished because of their loss in the final over against Pakistan. During that time, they severely tormented Sri Lanka, which is now one of the finalists, and also damaged Bangladesh’s prospects of advancing.

AFG vs IND: Top fight by Afghans against Pakistan

Afghanistan batted without fear and bowled with bravery, particularly on Wednesday night, when the outcome of the game could have been quite different if Fazal Haq Farooqi had been successful with his yorkers. Afghanistan bowled with courage and faced the bowling attack without fear.

Even their other loss in the Super Four, which was against Sri Lanka, was a closely fought and emotionally demanding competition, which should hold them in good stead and give them the confidence they’d want to carry to Australia for the next major event in a month’s time. The next major event is scheduled to take place in Australia.

AFG vs IND: India’s difficult Asia Cup campaign

India’s campaign has been about the difficult selection selections and the tiny weaknesses that they need to rectify as soon as possible before the Twenty20 World Cup. They need to address these issues while batting first. They lost both of their Super Four games because they were batting towards the end of the game, and the fact that they could only play five different bowling choices was a limitation.

Because of this, the match against Afghanistan will be the first of seven Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is) that they play prior to the major tournament in Australia (three of these matches will be played against South Africa, and the remaining three will be played against Australia at home). During these matches, they will be able to gain clarity on the combinations that should and should not be used.

AFG vs IND: Match details  

When: Match 5 of the Super Four, India vs. Afghanistan, will take place on September 8 at 6:00 PM local time and 7:30 PM IST.

Where: The Dubai International Stadium is the location.

What to anticipate: Win the toss, bowl first, and you should win the match, right? This has been the case throughout the Super Four matches; batting in the second innings has seemed to be a little bit simpler than it was in the first.

Head-to-head: India has defeated Afghanistan in all three of its previous head-to-head matchups against Afghanistan in Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is). When India and Afghanistan played each other in a Twenty20 match for the last time, India was on the verge of being eliminated from the World Cup after suffering setbacks at the hands of Pakistan and New Zealand.

AFG vs IND: Tactics and updates

India

Because of his fever, Avesh Khan is still absent from work. Deepak Chahar, who is one of the reserves, might take his place if it turns out that he can’t play.

If India picks five pure bowlers once more and uses Hardik as the sixth option, he could be used specifically in the middle-overs, which is where he has earned the best returns since January 2020: 10 wickets in 38 overs with an economy rate of 7.63. If India picks five pure bowlers again and uses Hardik as the sixth option, he could be used specifically in the middle-overs where he has earned the best returns.

Dinesh Karthik might get a chance to play because India has struggled with the bat late in both of their Super Four losses (they were 46/2 in the last five overs against Pakistan and 46/4 against Sri Lanka). Dinesh Karthik might get a chance to play because India has struggled with the bat late in both of their Super Four losses.

Afghanistan

As a result of the short turnaround time between this game and their previous one, there are going to be a number of players on that side who are going to be sore, but there are no confirmed absentees at this point. After his spell, Fareed Ahmed, who had picked three, could be seen staggering around.

Afghanistan has two bowlers in Fazal Haq Farooqi and Fareed Ahmed who can challenge all three of India’s best batters, all of whom do not match up well against left-arm pace. The leg-spinner Rashid Khan is a good matchup against every Indian batter, with the exception of Rohit, who has scored at an SR of 148.28 against him, so Mohammad Nabi’s utilization of him will be crucial as well.

Even when facing Rohit, Rashid has been successful in bowling him out three times in the 29 balls they have faced off against each other in T20 matches. Nobody else in the lineup has a strikeout average higher than 120.
