BAN vs AFG Pitch Report
The pitch will be good for batting in the first inning and there should be very little help on offer for the pacers. However, spinners are always a threat in these conditions as the ball grips and turns. The second innings will be tougher to bat.

BAN vs AFG Top Team Batsmen
- Shakib Al Hasan, Litton Das and Najmul Hossain Shanto will be the top three batters from Bangladesh. Das and Shakib showed good form in the final ODI where they scored 53 and 39 respectively. Najmul Hossain Shanto is also a good batter in the shortest format of the game.
- Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran had a brilliant ODI series and they are likely to start well in T20Is as well. Mohammad Shahzad is also back in the team and will be keen to make an impact. He is a destructive batter who can decimate any bowling attack on his day.
BAN vs AFG Top Team Bowlers
- Shakib Al Hasan, Mustafizur Rahman will be the top two bowlers from Bangladesh. Shakib gave away just 13 runs in his 10 overs in the last ODI and looked like getting some form back while Rahman has been a key member of the bowling set-up for Bangladesh over the last few years. We would also like to back Taskin Ahmed who can trouble the Afghans with his pace.
- Rashid Khan and Mujeeb Ur Rahman without a doubt will be key with the ball. We are not sure Fazalfaq Farooqui will play given his injury. If Noor Ahmed plays, he will also be a good pick.
