Afghanistan vs Bangladesh Match 31 Prediction | ICC World Cup 2019



Afghanistan vs Bangladesh: Afghanistan are still in pursuit of finding their first victory in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019, after coming close to almost winning the game against India, on Saturday. They will now play against a formidable Bangladesh, who have seen an upsurge in their performance in this tournament and has been the biggest surprise in this league so far.

BANGLADESH – SO CLOSE YET SO FAR

One of the highlights of the world cup was Shakib-al-Hasan’s brilliance with the bat. His promotion to bat at number 3 has done wonders for Bangladesh and the team is reaping in the benefits of the same. He is currently the second highest run-getter in this tournament after David Warner. After their emphatic win against the Windies by scoring 322, Bangladesh also put up a strong fight against Australia and wrapped up their innings with a score of 333/8, chasing a target of 382.
However, Bowling has been their biggest concern so far as in each of the last three matches Bangladesh granted runs in excess of 320. Bangladesh’s own bowlers will need to step up to create life simpler for their batsmen, against a powerful Afghanistan bowling assault.
Afghanistan is going to be full of self-belief and confident as they take on Bangladesh, having lost to tournament-favourites India by a narrow margin of 11 runs. With the match being scheduled in Southampton, the Afghani spin-crew will look to make the most of the conditions and pose a great challenge to Bangladesh’s explosive batting line-up. However, to get the required outcome, their batsmen will have to concentrate on remaining at the crease for longer periods.

WEATHER REPORT

Tomorrow’s weather doesn’t sound much promising. There will be an expectation of rain all day long. A few rain breaks, if not an abandoned match, can be expected. With a 70% cloud cover all over, the heat is going to be about 20 degrees Celsius. The moisture level with the numbers in the 70s and 80s will be on an elevated side too.

PITCH REPORT

The Southampton pitch was slow in the last match and the spinners did the talking. The spinners can get assistance again if the match is played on the same track. But the spinners may not receive as much aid when the weather is dim or rainy. The strip performed better in the second quarter of the matches in the world cup. Thus, after winning the toss, teams can opt to play first.

PLAYING COMBINATIONS

BANGLADESH

Bangladesh will probably take Mosaddek Hossain, who lost the last game because of a minor injury. Sabbir Rahman, who got a golden duck against Australia, might have to stay out. There is no update on the back spasm of Mohammad Saifuddin. In the event that he reaches the required fitness standard, then Rubel Hossain, who leaked runs in the previous match, will have to stay on the bench.
PROBABLE XI: Tamim Iqbal, Soumya Sarkar, Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Liton Das, Mahmudullah, Sabbir Rahman/Mosaddek Hossain, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Mashrafe Mortaza (C), Rubel Hossain/Mohammad Saifuddin, Mustafizur Rahman

AFGHANISTAN

Afghanistan will look to continue with the same playing XI as played against India. Rahmat Shah and Hashmatullah Shahidi have been pivotal for their batting line-up. Captain Gulbadin Naib is also leading from the front from both the departments, by chipping-in important runs and taking seven wickets to his name.
Mohammad Nabi has shown impressive results in the tournament throughout. Rashid Khan, after a forgettable inning against England, came back against India, after dismissing the mighty MS Dhoni. Mujeeb-ur-Rahaman will be his spin companion on the other end. Dawlat Zardan and Aftab Alam will lead the pace-batteries for the team.
 PROBABLE XI: Hazratullah Zazai, Gulbadin Naib (C), Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi, Asghar Afghan, Mohammad Nabi, Najibullah Zadran, Rashid Khan, Ikram Ali Khil (wk), Aftab Alam, Mujeeb Ur Rahman
