Allah Ghazanfar stunned Bangladesh (BAN) in the first ODI, picking up a six-wicket haul. Hosts Afghanistan (AFG) were closing in on a defeat but the youngster turned the game single-handedly, helping his team pick up a 92-run win. However, despite the win, their batting remains a concern. The top order struggled massively and that is one area that the team management needs to address ahead of the second encounter.

Captain Shahidi scored a half-century and veteran all-rounder Mohammad Nabi made 84 runs off 79 deliveries, which helped the team post 235 runs on the board after a massive collapse. Bangladesh, on the other hand, are going through a horrid time in international cricket. First, they lost back-to-back Test series against India and South Africa, the latter at home and now, their performance in ODIs are also under the scanner. The constant conversation regarding captaincy is also not helping.

Pitch Report

It wasn’t an easy surface to bat on at Sharjah in the first ODI, and the trend is expected to continue. Batting first will be the ideal thing to do, given the surface can slow down later on. Anything over 260 runs can be considered to be a good total.

Probable Best Performers from AFG vs BAN

Probable Best Batter: Hazmatullah Shahidi

Afghanistan captain Hazmatullah Shahidi is one of the most consistent performers in the team. He made 52 runs in the last match when his team was under extreme pressure and that helped the hosts regain momentum. He will be key for the team once again in the second ODI.

Probable Best Bowler: Allah Ghazanfar

The 18-year-old wreaked havoc in the last ODI. He stunned the Bangladesh batters, picking up six wickets, and will be hoping to create the same damage in the second ODI. His partnership with Rashid Khan can decide the fate of the game.
