BAN vs AFG Preview

Bangladesh will be eager to continue their winning momentum as they face Afghanistan in a one-off Test match at the iconic Shere Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka.

Drawing confidence from their recent victory against Ireland at home, Bangladesh aims to build on their success. On the other hand, Afghanistan, who have not played a Test match in over two years, will be determined to secure a victory in this encounter.

In their previous meeting, Afghanistan emerged victorious against Bangladesh. However, the Afghan team for this tour will be without some of their key players who have been rested. Meanwhile, Bangladesh has showcased a strong performance on home soil in recent months, making it a challenging task for Afghanistan to overcome their opponents.

In the absence of the injured Shakib al Hasan, Litton Das will lead Bangladesh in this match. Seeking redemption for their defeat against Afghanistan three years ago, Das and Co. aim to capitalize on their experienced batting lineup.

After a gap of 26 months, the Afghanistan team returns to the Test cricket arena with a number of players set to make their debut. Unfortunately, the absence of their key bowlers will pose a challenge for the team.

The opening duo of Ibrahim Zadran and Nasir Jamal will play a crucial role as they face the probing Bangladeshi bowling attack. In the middle order, the team possesses its strengths, with Rahmat Shah, Shahidi, and Abdul Malik expected to deliver noteworthy performances.

The bowling unit will have a big task against the experienced Bangladesh batting line-up. Izharulhaq Naveed and Zahir Khan will have to shoulder the responsibility of bowling long spells. Abdul Malik and Janat will also have to play a key role to restrict the hosts.
