Another exciting day for Asian countries in the ICC World Cup 2023. Pakistan will take on Afghanistan in an all-important match, especially for Pakistan to keep their hopes alive for the Semi-Finals of the World Cup. Both teams are still in the semi-final race, though Afghanistan won’t qualify with ease, but Pakistan is well and truly in the race to qualify for the final four.
In World Cup history, Afghanistan has never beaten Pakistan but they have a great chance to turn the table. The match will be played at M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. It is a spinning track and will help Afghanistan because they have one of the best spin-bowling departments in the ICC World Cup 2023.
Pakistan is expecting some changes. They need to bring good spinners to make it a game. But the main issue is that Pakistani spinners are out of form. The only spinner that can be used as a mystery is the traveling reserved.
