AFGH vs BAN Dream11 Team Prediction & Probable XI: Preview

Hello and Welcome to our preview for Afghanistan versus Bangladesh match. We are covering AFGH vs BAN Dream11 Team Prediction, Preview and Probable Playing XI for the three-match T20I series. The match is to be played at Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium, Dehradun, Uttarakhand.

Afghanistan was extremely clinical in the first T20I against Bangladesh. They dominated the senior nation and in the end triumphed by a 45-run margin. Batting first, Afghanistan was in a tight spot after the brilliant start given by top-three. They were then rescued by the combo of Shenwari 36(18) and Shafiq 18(8). The target for Bangladesh was 168.

They lost the opener Tamim on the first ball as Mujeeb trapped him LBW. The wretched start continued and Bangladesh was then crashed by first Mohammad Nabi (2/21) and Rashid Khan (3/13). The Spin trio will again challenge the Bangla batting tomorrow.
