There’s an exciting match waiting for the spectators in Group 1 of the Super-8 stages. Afghanistan and India (IND vs AFG ) will square off in a major encounter on Thursday in Barbados as the two Asian superpowers prepare to battle it out to win their first game of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024.
After winning their first three games in a row, Afghanistan (AFG) dominated the group phase phases. They finished as the second-place team in the group after losing by 104 runs against the West Indies. Together with a variety of all-round players who can swing the game, the Afghans boast a strong batting lineup. They are a fearsome team because the bowling unit is also playing at full capacity.
With seven points from four games, India (IND) tops their Group A schedule at the completion of the match. India had advanced to the Super-8 stages with little difficulty after victories over Pakistan, Ireland, and the United States. The form of senior batting duo Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, particularly Kohli, will be the Indian team’s biggest concern because neither player has hit a home run yet.
