Afghanistan vs Bangladesh prediction

Bangladesh’s batting let them down against Sri Lanka and the worry is that the top order could struggle here vs Afghanistan and their quality spin-bowling attack. Rashid Khan’s side were excellent across all departments in their win over Hong Kong, admittedly lower-level opposition compared to the Tigers. But their tournament preparation was good and they appear to be reaping the benefits.

When comparing the two bowling attacks, Afghanistan’s appears to be stronger on paper than that of Bangladesh. The Tigers leaked runs in their last match and it would be no surprise to see the same in this one. Therefore, consider backing Afghanistan to record their second win of the competition, eliminating Bangladesh in the process.
