India vs Afghanistan 2024, 3rd T20I – Dafanews Match Preview

The final T20I of the three-match series against Afghanistan will be the last rehearsal for India before they play their opening T20I World Cup 2024 match against Ireland. The hosts have already taken an assailable lead of 2-0 in the series and the last game will be played at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru on Thursday.

We look at the current form, head-to-head, players to look out for, and squads of both teams in our match preview.

Current form for Afghanistan: L L W L W

Afghanistan haven’t been able to come up with a collective batting show and thus their bowlers haven’t had enough runs on the board. The Chinnaswamy pitch is a run paradise and the Afghan batters will have to step up to give enough cushion to their bowlers.

Current form for India: W W W L W

India has been sensational with both bat and ball in the first two matches and the hosts will look to carry the good show. Shivam Dube has been the star of the show for the Rohit Sharma-led team whereas other players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Arshdeep Singh, and Axar Patel have also grabbed their chances.
