ICC Mens Cricket World Cup Match Prediction 2023 Match 22 Pakistan vs Afghanistan Can Pakistan win their third victory in the tournament by defeating the Afghans Oct 23

PAK vs AFG Match Analysis

 

The 22nd game of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, which will take place in Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium on Monday, will feature a showdown between Pakistan and Afghanistan.

 

Pakistan is now ranked fifth in the standings with a net run rate of -0.456 despite dropping games to India and Australia. In order to win this crucial game, Captain Babar Azam will be counting on his team to play at their absolute best.

 

On the other side, New Zealand utterly outperformed Afghanistan in each of the three departments. Hashmatullah Shahidi, the team’s captain, would be aiming for a better showing from his team against Pakistan in both the bat and the ball.

Pakistan defeated Afghanistan in a tense match during the 2019 ICC World Cup in Leeds.

Imam-ul-Haq batted admirably for Pakistan in the previous game, finishing the innings with the best score of 70 runs off 71 balls with the help of ten boundaries. Abdullah Shafique, who was an opening batsman, smashed seven fours and two sixes his route to a fluid 64 off 61 balls.

MA Chidambaram Stadium

Both teams will be motivated to select the winning side, bat first, and score more than 265 runs. The team batting first won the two matches that were played in Chennai. 

 

The match is expected to take place in bright conditions with a light breeze on Sunday.

 

Bowlers fare better on the Chepauk Stadium pitch in Chennai than batsmen do. Particularly spinners succeed here. A captain may decide to bat first if they win the toss in order to set a lofty goal that will be challenging to reach. A score between 270 and 280 is considered to be fairly good on this bowler-friendly wicket.
