AFGH vs AUS Dream11 Team Prediction 4th ODI World Cup 2019: Preview
Afghanistan and Australia will collide in the second match of a first doubleheader of World Cup’19 at County Ground in Bristol. We will provide AFGH vs AUS Dream11 Team Prediction, Preview and Probable Playing XI for the match.
Team Afghanistan has grown manifolds in recent years and has become a strong team in the international arena. They have a solid batting attack comprising destructive openers Hazratullah Zazai and Mohammad Shahzad along with consistent middle order involving Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi, and Asghar Afghan. All Rounders Mohammad Nabi and Gulbadin Naib will also play a key role in the performance of the team. Their main strength is the spin trio of Rashid-Mujeeb-Nabi who can dismantle any batting unit of the world with their witty bowling.
They defeated Pakistan in the first warm-up game with help of spin duo of Nabi and Rashid along with quality batting from Hashmatullah Shahidi and Hazratullah Zazai. However, They were bamboozled in a second warm-up encounter by England and lost by nine wickets. Mohammad Nabi was the sole positive for Afghanistan with the bat as well as the bowl. They will hope to give a tough challenge to the mighty Australia team with their lethal spin attack.
Defending champions Australia is clear favourites to defend their title this year because of their well-balanced team. With the return of David Warner and Steve Smith along with in-form Khawaja, Finch, and Maxwell, They can destroy any bowling attack. Their pace attack is also one of the best of the tournament involving Pat Cummins, Starc, Behrendorff and Nathan Coulter Nile.
They dominated in both warm-up matches defeating hosts England and Sri Lanka. Steve Smith scored a brilliant century against England and was supported by David Warner while Behrendorff and Richardson starred with the ball taking two scalps each. Against Sri Lanka, Usman Khawaja was the top performer with the bat scoring 89 runs while Adam Zampa was the leading wicket-taker taking two wickets. Australia will be eager to begin their title defence on good note defeating Afghanistan team.
A good contest can be expected between both teams.
