🏏Cricket World Cup 2023: Match #3: Afghanistan vs Bangladesh on 7 Oct - Page 3

Mustafa Moudi : "Fun fact: Rashid Khan begin this World Cup with exact same Batting Average and Bowling Average - 19.53 !!"

Bangladesh is a cricket-mad nation but the recent results have not gone their way. In July, they lost the three-match ODI series at home 2-1 to Afghanistan. More recently, they lost 2-0 to New Zealand, also at home. Off the field, their build-up was marred by Tamim Iqbal's controversial omission. Can their captain Shakib Al Hasan, Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahmudullah inspire a turnaround?

obaid rahimi: "I am at the office in Kabul Afghanistan, having a PC with two connected screens and a TV. Managing routine office tasks as well as following two big matches of Afghanistan cricket (versus India in Asian games "

Junairah yousuf: "Hello good morning London! Eagerly waiting for that crunchy game since quite a long ! Hope tigers will begin their campaign with points! First game very important though ! Let's hope for the best good weather here too!"

Pitch report: The pitch is not quite central. It is one of the smaller venues in the World Cup and in India. There have been only four games played here in ODI cricket. We have got a very hard surface and a lot of grass. It has had more bounce as compared to the other venues in India. Really good spattering of grass and that helps the ball to come on, reckon Nasseer Hussain and Matthew Hayden.

Rashid Khan is having a pep talk with his teammates and they look determined and hungry to do well.

Thanks for the tag, Raji!❤️

Good morning everyone
