Afghanistan and India will head to New Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium for one last time ahead of their departure to Japan for the Asian Games 2026 campaign. Ibrahim Zadran’s team has been no match for the Indian side, who has been clinical and professional in their approach so far.
The game on Thursday will be a great chance for the 2024 T20 World Cup semi-finalists to reassess their plans and come out stronger. Top-order batting hasn’t been great, and if it wasn’t for the middle and lower order, the Afghans may have struggled to cross 150 in both games. Apart from Rashid Khan, none of the bowlers have been able to take the fight to the opposition batters.
For India, the form shown by Sanju Samson in the second game was a big relief. The decision-makers would want the 31-year-old to continue to score runs. Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan have also been in good nick with the bat. Shreyas Iyer’s form is a bit of a concern, with the skipper scoring just 19 runs in the first two games.
