Afghanistan playing 11: Afghanistan lost their previous tour to Ireland. It would have shown them where they stand with respect to their T20 set up. They are a much better side when conditions favor them and UAE conditions in the Asia Cup 2022 should suit Afghanistan better compared to the conditions that were in offer in Ireland. Sri Lanka have a very good bowling attack and it will be a challenge for AFG batsmen to put up a good total if they are batting first which went missing in the series against Ireland.
Afghanistan playing 11 team news
- Fazalhaq Farooqi got injured during the Ireland series and might be a doubtful starter for the game.
- If Fazalhaq Farooqi isn’t fit, both Azmatullah Omarzai and Farid Ahmad Malik will play in the XI.
- If Fazalhaq Farooqi is fit, Afghanistan might have to be content with Rashid Khan batting at 7 as Farid Ahmad Malik is a better option compared to Azmatullah Omarzai if they have to pick only one of them.
