Asia Cup 2023: Bangladesh vs Afghanistan match prediction
If Bangladesh loses, the Tigers will miss two consecutive Asia Cup Super Four qualifications. In the 2022 Asia Cup, Bangla Tigers lost to Afghanistan and Sri Lanka and were eventually knocked out of the tournament.
Afghanistan would be confident when they face Bangladesh as Afghanis have won three out of the last four meetings in the ODIs between the two teams. However, the Hashmatullah Shahidi-led team is also coming on the back of a four-match losing streak, including a 3-0 whitewash by Pakistan in a bilateral series in Sri Lanka in August.
