Afghanistan will struggle against top sides until they can sort out their pacers. They basically have to close out the game by the 40th over to win. Every time they're in a reasonable position their death bowling ****s up spectacularly.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

This will be their highest chase if they get there so not gonna be easy plus this wicket is not batting friendly

Losing by 100 runs atleast. Their maximum capacity is to chase 200

They had a good period with pacers in hamid hassan era but then the pipeline lost

And the legend, Shapoor Zadran

 

[Owzat]

could be the first side to choose to bat and win the game, although could easily be had they chosen to bowl they'd still have won


amazing that only 5 of the 21 toss winners to date have won their game

 

[Owzat]

Afghanistan not chasing this unless we see gurbaz 150 here

or unless England bowl..........!

Their batting is poo too and probably the bigger issue

Shaheen has lost his pace at a rather young age.

Shahidi to play 30(67) to kill the game

 

[White Ball]

With bat in hand Afghanistan are dominating here

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Shahidi to play 30(67) to kill the game

Provided that he actually gets to bat. These two batsmen are monsters.

Yeah. Afghan lineup currently is all about these two. The rest are all almost useless.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Why not bring your spinners early and try to get top 3 quick

Rauf has **** the bed rather spectacularly this WC

Thakur fans will love his average/economy combination of 29/7 though

 

[Adorable Asshole]
