Preview
Pakistan will be up against Afghanistan in the 22nd match of the ICC Cricket World Cup at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on October 23. Pakistan has been decent in their run so far with two wins from four matches while Afghanistan has won just one match. They are placed fifth and last in the rankings respectively.
Pakistan squared off against Australia in their last match where Pakistan won the toss and elected to field. This decision was proved to be a nightmare for the Pakistani bowlers as the opening duo of Australia had a dreamy run where they amassed 259 runs. Rest of the team could not very well continue with the start they got but still ended up 367 runs on the board. Pakistan too started well and several of their batters got starts but they kept losing wickets at regular intervals which hurt them in the end as they lost the match by 62 runs.
Afghanistan squared off against New Zealand in their last match where Afghanistan won the toss and elected to field. After a good start from their top order, the middle order fumbled a little as they went from 109 for 1 to 110 for 4, but the experience of Latham and Phillips came to their aid as they took the command and reached a strong total of 288 on a slow pitch. Afghanistan was never in the chase as they kept losing wickets right from the start. Few of their batters did get starts but none of them could solidify and hence lost the match by a huge margin of 149 runs.

Player Picks
Mohammad Rizwan PAK | WK
Rizwan has clearly been one of the most consistent batters of the tournament with 294 runs to his name. He can be named captain of your fantasy side.
Shaheen Afridi PAK | BOWL
Shaheen has not had too great of a tournament so far but still has managed to scalp nine wickets in four matches. He can be another such pick to lead your team.
Rashid Khan AFG | BOWL
Rashid is the blue-eyed boy of the Afghanistani team and has deservingly been so. He has amassed six wickets and 56 runs in the tournament.
Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team
Shadab Khan
PAK | ALL
Shadab has failed to make his mark in the tournament so far with the bat or ball. He should not be picked up in your team.
Fakhar Zaman
PAK | BAT
Zaman has not been in good form for a while now in international cricket. He should not find a place in your team.
