ENG vs AFGH Dream11 Grand League Team, Team News: ICC World Cup 2019 | 24th Match

ENG vs AFGH Dream11 24th Match Prediction | England vs Afghanistan ICC World Cup 2019

An injury-hit England will next take on a depleted Afghanistan in the 24th match of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 which will be played at the Old Trafford in Manchester. With Jason Roy already out for at least a week due to a hamstring injury, the team management has some headaches on the fitness of skipper Eoin Morgan ahead of this clash.

As far as Afghanistan is concerned, they have thoroughly disappointed so far with the way they have played. At the start of the competition, they were expected to produce some upsets which have definitely not happened so far.

Can this be the game where Afghanistan produce something relevant and topple England or will an injury-hit England continue with their winning ways? The answers will be revealed later in the afternoon.

The conditions at the Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester

The surface would be the same which was used in the India vs Pakistan contest. The ball will grip here which means the spinners will definitely come into play. Both teams have some quality spinners in their side and it would be interesting to see what will be the approach of the two captains while finalizing their team combination.
