Just like India-Pakistan cricketing rivalry, there is a talk of the emerging cricket rivalry between Afghanistan and Pakistan. To date, the two teams have met each other only twice in ODIs, with Pakistan coming out on top on both occasions.
Team changes
Afghanistan: Afghanistan have won two in two games in the tournament so far and are most likely to come out unchanged for this one.
Pakistan: Shadab Khan is down with a niggle, and there is a chance of Mohammad Nawaz replacing him today. Mohammad Amir’s form is another concern before Pakistan think tank.

In the other game, injury-hit India have to address the fifth bowler conundrum after the injury to all-rounder Hardik Pandya. Bangladesh, received a hammering from Afghanistan a day ago, have concerns of their own and would look to put a better show.
India: Ravindra Jadeja is likely to slot in for injured Hardik Pandya, although he is a not like-to-like replacement for the latter. Among others who may get a look-in are Deepak Chahar, Khaleel Ahmed and KL Rahul.
Bangladesh: Bangladesh rested Mushfiqur Rahim and Mustafizur Rahman against Afghanistan. Both are likely to return, for Nazmul Hossain Shanto and Abu Hider, respectively.
