Preview

We are in the 39th match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 where Afghanistan will take on Canada. This match will be played in Chennai. Canada suffered a defeat against New Zealand in the previous match and has lost all their matches in this edition.
On the other hand, Afghanistan lost the opening two matches but bounced back to win against the UAE in the last game. Afghanistan are already eliminated and will be playing for pride. Rashid Khan-led Afghanistan have been disappointing this edition and they will be keen to finish the campaign on a positive note. We can see some changes for both sides and this should be an evenly matched contest
