New Zealand is a team many would say likely to lose against the dark horse Afghanistan. On paper both teams have strengths and weaknesses. Afghanistan also looking to shock New Zealand. An upset round the corner as the T20 match will be a day game, it suits Afghanistan more. New Zealand to face Afghanistan to look for playing good cricket, with just a marginal win to enter semi-final. It’s as simple as win today for New Zealand and then couple of wins to clinch 2021 T20 World Cup.
However, it’s interesting to watch Afghanistan players performing at their best to unsettle New Zealand. Desperate Kiwis (New Zealand) against not so formidable Afghanistan.
The Short Story
Mohammed Nabi will again miss the services of Mujeeb Ur Rahman. Mujeeb is one of the best bowlers in Afghanistan’s side. If Afghanistan bat first and scores over 160, then it would be tough for the Kiwis. If New Zealand bat first then any total more than 150 would be even tough for Afghanistan to chase.
As cricket experts anticipate, it’s easy for New Zealand to face Afghanistan in a do or die match than any other team. Kane Williamson would be just looking for a win. That’s enough but Afghanistan needs a big win to maintain their NRR (Net Run Rate) higher than India. India on the other hand would be keen to support Afghanistan in order to have yet another big win against Namibia.
The Sheikh Zayed stadium at Abu Dhabi likely to be more noisy and a good support for Afghanistan and New Zealand equally would be interesting. The match starts at 3: 30 pm IST. A day match always good for Afghanistan to bowl first or bowl second. Top bowlers from both the teams would likely to be the match winners. Trent Boult, Tim Southee, and Ish Sodhi likely to pick wickets for New Zealand. Rashid Khan, Hamid Hassan and if Mujeeb Ur Rahman too plays in this match then it would be a tight match to watch.
New Zealand still looks favorite, but India wants Afghanistan to win. That’s a precarious situation any team could have like this situation, where India is in.
