Pitch Report
The pitch at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium has traditionally favoured batters, with conditions generally improving as the game progresses. The smaller boundary dimensions mean that batters can clear the rope with relatively fewer efforts and timing. However, the surface has often shown signs of being a double-sided support, which could bring spinners into play during the middle overs and make scoring a challenge.

Probable Top Performers from AFG vs BAN
Probable Best Batter: Rahmanullah Gurbaz
Afghanistan's Rahmanullah Gurbaz could be the best batter in the upcoming game against Bangladesh. Gurbaz has been exceptional so far in the series, registering scores of 40 and 30, respectively. However, his efforts have gone in vain as Afghanistan has suffered defeats on both occasions. The right-handed batter will look to once again provide his team with a solid start.
Probable Best Bowler: Rashid Khan
Afghanistan's skipper, Rashid Khan, could be the best bowler in the upcoming game against Bangladesh. In both T20Is, the leg spinner has tried his level best to give his team a good chance to win, but eventually, they end on the losing end. With six wickets to his name, Khan will look to add more to his tally and also help his team win the clash.
