Afghanistan, a country with immense talent and is certainly a team to watch out for this World Cup. They could bring in some surprises and spoil the joy of other big teams. Aftab Alam is one among the many talented players of their squad. The 26-year-old is a medium pace bowler and has played 24 matches in which he has taken 37 wickets, with an impressive economy of under five.

He is young player and has a very bright future ahead of him. Afghanistan will be looking to play some of their expeirenced players first up to start with the event. They will be going for more experience and wicket-taking bowlers like their spin-trio Rashid Khan, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Mohammad Nabi and their pace bowlers will mainly be Hamid Hassan, Dalwat Zadran and their newly appointed all-rounder and captain Gulbadin Naib.

Aftab Alam might have to wait for his chance and could well be in with a chance to play if the UK weather changes and assists swing bowling.
