Afghanistan vs England: Who Will Win Today’s AFG vs ENG Champions Trophy Match?

It is common for the ICC Champions Trophy to have matches in close succession for the various teams. Consequently, an adverse result might not only dent the chances of qualification but also leave two successive losses hanging in the balance. Both Afghanistan and England know this ahead of their much-awaited round as they prepare to take on each other after having lost to South Africa and Australia, respectively.

Afghanistan had this one-way route as they went all the way downhill from the very outset of the match. England amassed a total of 350 runs in the very first inning and, however, saw this target chased down very ruthlessly by Australia with as many as 15 balls before the end.

This is now a must-win match for both teams, as neither of them wishes to taste the bitterness of having lost two matches in a row. Only one outcome is capable of creating entry tickets to the next stage of the tournament, and it is a victory.

Who Will Win the Match?

It is expected that England will win the match against Afghanistan. England lost to Australia. However, their batting line-up and bowling attack are too experienced to be challenged by Afghanistan. Players like Ben Duckett and Jos Buttler have the talent to score large runs for the team.

However, through rigorous training and practice, Afghanistan will have to improve both in batting and bowling to stand a chance against England. They already have some promising players, including Rashid Khan and Rahmanullah Gurbaz. However, they do not possess the breadth and experience that the English side has.
