IND vs AFG T20 World Cup 2021 Prediction: In the 33rd match of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021, India will be locking horns with Afghanistan on 3 November at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. Both these teams are coming into this game after having witnessed quite contrasting fortunes in the ongoing edition of the tournament. India have witnessed a horrendous T20 World Cup 2021 campaign so far having suffered comprehensive losses at the hands of Pakistan and New Zealand. On the other hand, Afghanistan have managed to win 2 out of their 3 matches in the ongoing tournament. Thus, it is expected to be an exciting contest between two really good teams.
Fixture Name: Match 33, India vs Afghanistan
Competition: ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2021
Date: 3 November
Time: 7:30 PM IST
Ground: Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi
Team Form Guide: IND (recent last): L L L W W AFG (recent last): W L W W L
As seen in the previous game at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium, there was enough assistance both for the batters and bowlers throughout the match. Both the spinners and fast bowlers have extracted enough from this track in the recently concluded Indian Premier League, but the conditions are expected to be better for batting. However, the captain winning the toss should look to bowl first as it is a day-night fixture and dew factor will certainly come into play.
