Afghanistan will challenge Australia in Match 38 of the T20 World Cup 2022 in Adelaide. Australia is currently third in the points table, having won two of their four games. They must win this game by a large margin to remain in contention for the semi-finals. The hosts defeated Ireland by 42 runs in their previous match. Aaron Finch and Marcus Stoinis have been their standout performers.
Afghanistan, on the other hand, has no victories in four matches and would like to finish the tournament on a high note. The Mohammad Nabi-led side failed to defend their total of 144 against Sri Lanka in their last league game. Rashid Khan, the spinner, is unlikely to be available due to injury, and Qais Ahmad may be dropped. Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Mujeeb Ur Rahman will be crucial to the team’s prospects.
Pitch Condition
The batters are expected to have a good time in Adelaide, thanks to a belter of a surface and smaller square boundary dimensions. Fast bowlers will benefit from the new ball and will look to capitalize on powerplay overs.
