Background
IND vs AFG Score Highlights: Hello and welcome to ABP Live’s coverage of India vs Afghanistan in the Asia Cup 2022 Super 4 match being played at Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Rohit Sharma-led Indian cricket team will feature in their final clash of the Asia Cup T20 tournament against Afghanistan on Thursday, September 8.
Team India, seven-time winners of the Asia Cup and the defending champions, started strongly in their first two matches, winning against Pakistan and Hong Kong during the league stage of Asia Cup 2022. However, India lost their matches against arch-rivals Pakistan and Sri Lanka at the Super 4 stage to sit out of the Asia Cup 2022 Final contention.
IND Vs AFG is a dead rubber encounter, as both the teams are not in the 2022 Asia Cup Finals hunt. This match is a battle of pride between two national cricket teams.
Due to Avesh Khan’s injury, Deepak Chahar got a call and may get a chance to don the Men In Blue jersey in today's encounter. In the batting department, Dinesh Karthik can probably replace Rishabh Pant.
Afghanistan also registered two back-to-back victories in their first two matches against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka at the league stage of Asia Cup 2022. But similar to India's fate, lost their matches against Sri Lanka and Pakistan during the Super 4 stage.
Mohammed Nabi, Afghanistan’s captain, might make a few changes as well to the Playing XI, giving fresh faces a chance to face quality opposition like India.
India and Afghanistan have clashed against each other in three T20 internationals previously and India has emerged victorious in all three matches.
Considering their encounters in the Asia Cup (ODI & T20), both teams played each other twice in 2018, with India winning one match and the other finishing in a draw.
