Afghanistan and Australia have been head to head for just 3 times, that too in an ODI match, which were won by the Australian team. Their match in the T20 World Cup 2022 will be the first time that they will be head-to -head in a T20 match.
Speaking about the Australian team, they have been performing unfailingly in every format of cricket. Because this World Cup will be played in the T20 format, we will talk about the T20 format. From 2006 to 2022, the Australian team has played 159 T20s, in 83 matches they emerged victorious while they lost 79 and 3 ended in a tie. Australia is considered the most successful team in all the formats. They have the most number of World Cup trophies. They are the current holders of the T20 world cup as they defeated New Zealand in the final of T20 world Cup 2021.
The Australian team has many star players, from Aaron Finch and David Warner who are one of the best opening pairs out there, to Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis who are dangerous all-rounders while the addition of Tim David in the Australian team will make its batting lineup more lethal and dangerous as he is one of the finest hitter of the ball out there and has shown his capabilities in PSL, IPL and BBL as well. The Australian team is one of those teams which you should be worried about. While in the pace bowling, they have Mitchell Starc, who is a Yorker expert, Josh Hazelwood and Pat Cummins who are one of the best pace bowlers out there.
The rise of Afghanistan in the previous few years has stunned many. Their players are playing brilliant cricket these days. Out of the 105 T02s that Afghanistan has played, they were victorious in 68 matches while they lost 35 and 1 match ended in a tie. Afghanistan team captain is Muhammad Nabi, who is a wonderful all-rounder.
Their sloggers, who are Najibullah Zardan, Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zardan as well, are playing fabulous cricket these days. Two Afghani players are in the list of top all-rounders. Muhammad Nabi is on 2nd spot and Rashid Khan, a brilliant leg spinner is on 3rd spot who can bat too when needed. Though the pace bowling of Afghanistan team is weak, they can surprise their opponents like they did in the match against Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2022.
Naveen ul Haq, Fazal Haq Farooqi and Farid Ahmad Malik are their leading pace bowlers and their extraordinary performance will be needed if they want to defeat their opponents especially on Australian pitches.
Prediction
Australia is clearly a stronger team than Afghanistan in every aspect. So defeating Afghanistan shouldn’t be a difficult task for the mighty Australian team
