This match will be held at Sharjah Stadium and the boundary seems to be very high on this pitch but less if the bowling is good.
With a win over India in their first match of Super 4, Pakistan is ready to take on Afghanistan with renewed confidence. Their emphatic win over India has showcased some new talent that the Pakistan team will be less dependent on some key players. If they win the match on Wednesday (September 7), both India and Afghanistan will be out of the Asia Cup.
On the other hand, Afghanistan suffered defeat after two consecutive victories and will try to get their campaign back on track by winning this match. They will go ahead with the mild advantage of playing more games than Pakistan at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.
However, their middle-order stability, especially in the loss against Sri Lanka, showed some shortcomings. The biggest question mark is in the form of their captain Mohammad Nabi. Their top-order firepower, led by openers Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Hazratullah Zazai, did little in the tournament and the Afghanistan team will be hoping their top order perform well and they will take the burden once again. His new challenge will reveal his potential against the high-speed bowlers near Pakistan.
