Bangladesh vs Afghanistan Asia Cup 2022: BAN vs AFG Head-to-Head Records and Stats

Bangladesh will start off their Asia Cup journey against Afghanistan on Tuesday at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, United Arab Emirates (UAE) at 7:30 PM IST.

Afghanistan have already proven themselves a well-deserved contender for the Super Four berth as they thrashed Sri Lanka in their first match by eight wickets. On the other hand, Bangladesh are struggling with their form in the shortest format of the game. They have failed to win a single T20I series this year so far. However, Bangladesh’s best T20I result came against Afghanistan earlier in March. They managed to end the two-match series in a 1-1 draw.

Afghanistan have been in the headlines following their commendable performances in recent times. In the last match, the Afghan bowlers did significantly well and restricted the Sri Lankan innings to just 105 runs. While chasing, they did not face much resistance from the Islanders.  Wicket keeper-batter Rahamanullah Gurbaz stole the show by smashing 40 runs off just 18 deliveries. Opener Hazratullah Zazai also made a notable contribution and remained unbeaten at 37. They brought the chase down with almost 10 overs left to spare.

Bangladesh will need to get going from the word go while facing this high-flying Afghanistan side. Their top order will need to show some composure. Their contribution will play a pivotal role as they face the fiery attack of the Afghan bowling unit.
