This will be the second ODI between Afghanistan and Bangladesh. It will be played on November 9th, 2024, at 3:30 PM IST at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in the UAE.
Afghanistan showed excellent temperament as a team in the first ODI as they won by 92 runs. The lower order steadied the ship after a top-order collapse. Mohammad Nabi scored 84 runs and Allah Ghazanfar wreaked havoc with the ball later on, picking up six wickets, and restricted Bangladesh to just 143 while defending 236 runs. They’ll be eyeing a series win in this game.
Meanwhile, Bangladesh were below average with the bat. None of their batters had any answers to Allah Ghazanfar. The bowlers did a good job but batting will be a big concern. It’s a must-win match for Bangladesh. Â
