AFG vs BAN Match Prediction: 3rd T20I, Fantasy Tips, Playing 11, Pitch Report More – Afghanistan vs Bangladesh T20I Series 2025 

AFG vs BAN: Another game ended against Afghanistan, and they have been struggling big time in the last few months or so. They will be in action in the third and final T20I against Bangladesh on Sunday at Sharjah Cricket Stadium at 8 PM IST. Can they avoid the series white-wash?

Bangladesh Preview 

Bangladesh have been the better side of the two. They have managed to restrict Afghanistan in both games and won the series. Now, they will look to wrap up the series 3-0 and head into the ODIs with great momentum.

• Key Batter: Parviz Emon and Tanzid Hasan had an average last game, but both openers have been among the runs of late.
• Captaincy: Captain Jaker Ali finally had some runs with the bat. He looked good and played a crucial knock in the chase.
• Batting Strength: The batting has responded well for Bangladesh under pressure. They have managed to get runs when needed, and even their lower-order batters have contributed.
• Bowling Attack: Bangladesh have rotated their bowlers in both games, and despite that, nothing has changed. They have done well with pace and spin both.

Afghanistan Preview 

Afghanistan have batted first in both games, and they ended short of runs. Bowlers have not been disciplined when it mattered and failed to execute their plans. But they need runs from their batters.

• Batting: The top three batters have failed to give the team good starts. That has put pressure on the middle order. So, Afghanistan need a good start with the bat.
• Bowling: Rashid Khan and other bowlers have done well. But their paces with the new ball are something they have not been consistent with.

Match Details – Bangladesh vs Afghanistan, 3rd T20I

Sharjah Cricket Stadium Pitch and Weather Report

Sharjah Cricket Stadium is not a ground where you can play big shots from the very first ball. This is a slow wicket, which has uneven bounce as the game goes forward. The new ball will be easier to hit when the pitch is firm. And as seen in recent years, the chasing side has always had an advantage.

The weather for Sunday in Sharjah shows no sign of rain, with the temperature going around 33°C, and the humidity in the evening will be at 62 percent.

Key Players to Watch Out in Afghanistan vs Bangladesh Match 

Top Batters 

• Rahmanullah Gurbaz (AFG): Rahmanullah Gurbaz has played two good knocks, but he needs to take more responsibility and play long innings.
• Ibrahim Zadran (AFG):  Ibrahim Zadran played a good anchor knock in the last game. But he needs to work on his strike rate, and he can be very good at the top.
• Jaker Ali (BAN):  Jaker Ali showed good applications and took the aggressive approach. He will be confident after that important knock.
• Parvez Emon (BAN):  Parvez Emon had a failure in the last game, but before that he scored a good fifty, and even before that he was scoring runs consistently.

Top Bowlers 

• Nasum Ahmed (BAN): Nasum Ahmed won the last game with the bat, but with the ball as well he has been very effective and economically good this series.
• Rishad Hossain (BAN): Rishad Hossain has been superb in the middle overs. It is not easy to hit him because of his different variations.
• Rashid Khan (AFG):  Rashid Khan has been superb in both games and is the leading wicket-taker of the series.
• Azmantullah Omarzai (AFG):  Azmantullah Omarzai bowled a brilliant spell of 4/23, and he is bowling well at the start and at death.

AFG vs BAN Match Prediction – Who Will Win? 

Afghanistan are under a lot of pressure after losing four consecutive T20Is. In the last six games, they have won only one game. Bangladesh might rest a few players, as it is a dead rubber game, but still, they are performing better than Afghanistan and will be favorites going into this game.
