Afghanistan vs Bangladesh prediction
These two teams have performed on opposite ends of the scale during this tri-series. Whilst Afghanistan have been excellent, dismantling Zimbabwe by 158 runs on Monday, it’s been a very different story for Bangladesh. The Tigers looked completely out of sorts at the weekend and were duly punished by Zimbabwe, losing their match by a pitiful 99 runs.
The biggest gulf in class that we’ve seen so far has been with the bat. Afghanistan looked very good from a batting perspective, controlled, yet aggressive when needed with some impressive stroke-play. Bangladesh though, showed a brittle spine, unable to pace an innings and losing key wickets at bad times. It’s the batting that should prove the difference here and leads us to back Afghanistan.
Afghanistan vs Bangladesh tip: Afghanistan to win
