Preview
The defending World Cup champions, Australia, are all set to take on a determined Afghanistan outfit in a do-or-die clash in the Match No. 10 of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, slated to take place on February 28 at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.
While the Steven Smith-led side salvaged a point from a washout against the South African side before hammering England, the Afghans staged their comeback with a magnificent eight-run win over Jos Buttler and his men, recovering from their heavy defeat against the Proteas.
With just one point separating the two powerhouses, the winner of this clash is set to ensure the spot in the semi-finals, while the losing team might find themselves hanging on the result of South Africa's last game.
Notably, this is a must-win game for Afghans if they wish to book their berth in the semi-finals. On the flip side, Steve Smith and Co. would also aim to win this game to ensure their semi-final spot in this ICC event.
