AFG vs PAK Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing 11, Pitch Report and Injury Updates For Match 24 of T20 World Cup 2021

Preview:

Afghanistan will be up against Pakistan in the 24th match of the T20 World Cup 2021. Both sides are in the top half of the Group 2 standings. Afghanistan made an outstanding start to their World Cup campaign, with a massive 130-run victory over Scotland. Their batters did really well to post the score of 190 runs on the board and later the spin duo of Rashid Khan and Mujeeb ur Rehman bamboozled the opposition. They are ready to upset Pakistan in this match.

Pakistan’s middle order was exposed the other night against New Zealand, but Shoaib Malik and Asif Ali played a rescue act in getting them home. Babar Azam has been spot on with his captaincy skills and rotated his bowlers really well. Haris Rauf is the bowler to watch out for them in this match. They occupy the top spot in the Group 2 standings with 4 points.

Top Picks for AFG vs PAK Dream11 Match:

Top Picks ­– Batters

Babar Azam had a bad day at the office in the last match against New Zealand, where he got out for just 9 runs. He is a world-class batter and you can’t leave him out of your fantasy teams.

Najibullah Zadran was the top scorer for Afghanistan in the last game against Scotland. In only 34 balls, he scored 59 runs, which included 5 fours and 3 sixes.

Top Picks ­– All-Rounders

Shadab Khan isn’t giving away easy runs in the middle overs. He has picked up only one wicket in the last 2 matches at an economy of 5.85, but by keeping the economy rate down, he is putting the opposition batters under pressure.

Mohammad Nabi didn’t have much to do in the last game against Scotland. Coming in at the back end of the innings, he scored 11* runs from just 4 balls.

Top Picks ­– Bowlers

Haris Rauf was the player of the match for his stellar bowling performances in the last match against New Zealand. He picked up 4 key wickets by conceding just 22 runs in his 4 overs.

Mujeeb Ur Rahman did most of the damage in the last match against Scotland. He claimed 5 wickets by conceding 20 runs in his 4 overs. Pakistan batters need to be watchful against him.

Top Picks ­– Wicketkeepers

Mohammad Rizwan looks to rotate the strike at the initial stages of the match and tries to accelerate only when he is fully set. In 2 matches in this World Cup, he has scored 112 runs at an average of 112.

AFG vs PAK Risky Captaincy Choices:

Mohammad Shahzad is inconsistent at times, but on his day, he can smack the ball out of the park very easily. You can take a risk and pick him as your fantasy team skipper.

Mohammad Hafeez brings more experience with both bat and ball. It’s worth a risk and you can pick him as your fantasy team skipper.

Player you should avoid:

Considering plenty of competition among the batters, it’s hard to include Asghar Afghan in the final eleven.
