Hashmatullah Shahidi

The southpaw batsman could only score eight runs against South Africa. Thus, Shah will need to deliver the goods with the bat. The left-hander had scored a fifty against New Zealand.

Najibullah Zadran

The left-hander has been Afghanistan’s best batsman thus far in the tournament. However, he was surprisingly dropped in the last match against South Africa.

Mohammad Nabi

The talisman all-rounder hasn’t been at his best in the ongoing World Cup. A lot is expected from Nabi and would like to stand tall to all the challenges.

Ikram Alikhil

The wicket-keeper batsman has also failed to impress with his performances since he has come into the team in place of Mohammad Shahzad.

Gulbadin Naib

The all-rounder has failed to lead his troops with confidence. Naib has been under the microscope for his captaincy and he would look to inspire his team.

Rashid Khan

The talisman leg-spinner had smashed 35 runs from 25 balls. However, Rashid Khan went wicketless against South Africa. Thus, he has failed to create an impact.

Aftab Alam

The fast bowler was economical in his spell but went wicketless. Hence, he would like to be right on the money to get his scalps.

Hamid Hassan

The pacer was able to keep the runs at bay. However, he was also not able to get among the wickets. Thus, he would like to hit the straps.
