Preview

Australia will be up against the challenge of Afghanistan in Match 38 of the T20 World Cup 2022 in Adelaide. Australia are currently in the third position in the points table, with two victories in four games. They need to win this game by a big margin to stay alive in the race for the semi-finals. In their last outing, the hosts secured a 42-run victory over Ireland. The likes of Aaron Finch and Marcus Stoinis have been their top performers.

On the other hand, Afghanistan  have no victories in four matches and would look to end the tournament on a positive note. In their last league game, the Mohammad Nabi-led side could not defend their total of 144 against Sri Lanka. The spinner Rashid Khan is not likely to be available due to injury, and Qais Ahmad might make a cut. The likes of Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Mujeeb Ur Rahman will be key for the team’s prospects.
