Australia will lock horns with Afghanistan in the 38th match of the T20 World Cup 2022 in Adelaide
Australia will lock horns with Afghanistan in the 38th match of the T20 World Cup 2022 in Adelaide. As we come to the business end of the ongoing T20 World Cup 2022. All teams are battling it out for points, each game is crucial. Australia finds itself in a spot of bother after England defeated New Zealand a few days back. They’ll be going all guns blazing, not just for the points but also to increase their net run rate as well. On the other hand, Afghanistan has not played to their potential and has lost all 4 matches that they have played, they would look to end the tournament on a positive note.
Australia is currently in the third position on the points table, with two victories in four games. They need to win this game by a big margin to stay alive in the race for the semi-finals. In their last outing, the hosts secured a 42-run victory over Ireland. Afghanistan is coming into this game on the back of a loss to Sri Lanka. Rashid Khan will not feature in the match due to injury and Qais Ahmad might replace him in the XI. The likes of Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Mujeeb Ur Rahman will be key for the team’s prospects against the Aussies.
