Head-to-Head Record Afghanistan vs Australia
Australia won the only T20I played against Afghanistan by four runs at the T20 World Cup in 2022.
Afghanistan
Afghanistan will be still remembering the Glenn Maxwell onslaught at the World Cup last year. But it was their spinners who had dismissed the top and middle-order. Afghanistan, led by Rashid Khan, will back themselves to win against Australia this time around. Moreover, with this being the must-win clash for them, it is imperative they put their best foot forward.
Australia
Australia are unbeaten in this World Cup so far with five consecutive wins. They were almost clinical against Bangladesh first restricting them to 140 runs and then being ahead in the chase all the time. Mitchell Marsh and his men, however, will be wary of Afghanistan who almost beat them in the ODI World Cup last year.
