Key Players Set to Steal the Spotlight for BAN in the 3rd T20I against AFG 

Bangladesh enters the 3rd T20I against Afghanistan at Sharjah Cricket Stadium with momentum and a desire to finish the series well. The second match of the series was a nail-biter, and both teams have had good moments throughout the series, so this match is all about pride and series bragging rights. As for Bangladesh, a mix of fireworks batting and smart bowling has kept them in the series, but their established players will ultimately have to help them cross the finish line if they are going to win. 

Batters

Jaker Ali is still the batter of the Bangladesh top order and has had a constant explosive start with 700 runs in 39 innings at a strike rate of 124.33, and can take innings deep. Jaker has the highest score of 72 and has shown himself able to create match-defining innings under pressure. Jaker’s ability to find gaps and rotate strike will be key against Afghanistan in an important series on a Sharjah surface that benefits aggression and timing.

In the middle-order is wicketkeeper-batter Nurul Hasan, who provides both experience and stability in the line-up. Scoring 549 runs in 46 innings at a strike rate of 122.54, Nurul has been dependable in laying foundations and batting aggressively in the death overs. With his flexibility as a batter, he is a useful component for Bangladesh, being able to attack Afghanistan’s spin bowling, while keeping Bangladesh on pace for their innings.

All-Rounders

Rishad Hossain provides Bangladesh with versatility with bat and ball and is an official X-factor. He has scored 204 runs and taken 60 wickets in 29 innings. A two-way threat, Rishad could change the game at any point. He can stabilize the middle order and break important partnerships with his bowling.

Even with only 13 innings under his belt, Saif Hassan has made a mark on the board with 296 runs and finished with 69 wickets, not to mention the ability to close out games when the going gets tough. Saif has the power to swing the momentum of a game for a few overs through aggressive batting and add a spin option through his bowling.

Bowlers

Mustafizur Rahman will be the leader of the bowling attack for the Bangladesh team. He has experience, with 152 wickets coming from 120 innings and a top score of 6/10, potentially snuffing out any batting unit when combined with his pace and his ability to add quick variation to his deliveries.

Shoriful Islam is an excellent complement as a wicket-taking option in the middle overs, as he has 59 wickets with a best of 3/17 in 53 innings. Shoriful maintains a consistent line and length and can take wickets at important times, disrupting the opposition’s momentum. 

The match-winning Australian team includes Jaker Ali, Nurul Hasan, Rishad Hossain, Saif Hassan, Mustafizur Rahman, and Shoriful Islam, which is a collective unit if they gel their skills together. Bangladesh might put themselves in a position to gain a signature win in the third T20I versus Afghanistan, finishing the series with a good feeling.
