PAK vs AFG Asia Cup Super Four Live: How will the teams shape up?

 

Pakistan wouldn’t be looking to make any change to their playing eleven unless Shahnawaz Dahani is fit and ready to play. If he is fit, he will walk into the team straight away. 

 

On the other hand, Afghanistan too will consider the Sri Lanka match as a one-off and look to continue with the same team. Maybe they will drop Samiullah Shinwari who dropped a crucial catch of Bhanuka Rajapaksa in the last game.

PAK vs AFG Asia Cup Super Four Live: Sharjah Pitch Report

 

So far, two matches have taken place in Sharjah and in both the games, Afghanistan has been involved. While chasing even 127 became very tough against Bangladesh for Afghanistan, Sri Lanka chased down 175 against them with almost an over to spare. Thus, the two wickets were totally different and at night, batting becomes easier. In this match also, it is expected that the wicket will help the chasing team.
