Top Pick – Batter

Ibrahim Zadran is an all-format player for Afghanistan who is consistently making a mark. Including a century, he has scored 141 runs in 2 matches in this series.

Top Pick – All-Rounder

Shakib Al Hasan will always fetch you points with his thorough all-round display. So far in 2 matches this series, he has scored 40 runs and picked up 3 wickets.

Top Pick – Bowler

Fazalhaq Farooqi uses his pace to a good extent and is clever with his change-ups at times as well. He has picked up 6 wickets in 2 matches in this series at an economy of 2.87.

Top Pick – Wicketkeeper

Rahmanullah Gurbaz is becoming a beast with the bat and scoring fluently whenever the opportunity arises. He recorded his highest ODI score, hammering 145 runs in the 2nd ODI of the series that came at a strike rate of 116.

X-Factor:

Mushfiqur Rahim is a savior for Bangladesh in the middle order and played a similar kind of innings in the 2nd ODI to save his side from early collapse and finally got dismissed for 69 runs.

Pre-Match Analysis:

Plenty of things to address for Bangladesh as they lost the series with a game left. Ineffective bowling, poor show with the bat, and ordinary fielding resulted them in losing the series. Their weakness against spinners is frequently getting exposed and need to find solutions as soon as Asia Cup and World Cups are around the corner. They scored 169 runs when overs were reduced to 43 in the 1st ODI and settled for just 189 while chasing a mammoth 331 in the 2nd ODI. They have already dropped the series and looking to reduce the margin to 2-1.

Afghanistan are growing in confidence in white ball cricket and aren’t scared of big teams anymore. They directly locked their spot in the World Cup without even featuring in the Qualifiers and now thumped Bangladesh on their own territory to claim the series 2-0. They won the 1st ODI of the series by 17 runs (D/L method) when rain didn’t allow them to complete the game and in the 2nd ODI, they produced complete professionalism to humble Bangladesh by 142 runs. Centuries from openers Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran steered them to surpass the 300 run-mark and later the bowlers dominated the show by restricting the home side to paltry 189 runs. They are unwilling to settle for this and eyeing a 3-0 whitewash.
