IND vs AFG Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing 11, Injury Updates & Pitch Report For 3rd T20I

IND vs AFG will lock horns each other in the 3rd T20I of the Afghanistan tour of India at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore. In this T20I series consisting of three matches, India has already secured the series victory with a 2-0 lead. The second T20I witnessed India’s dominance as they won by six wickets.

India’s decision to bowl first after winning the toss in the second T20I proved effective. Afghanistan’s openers, Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran, had a modest start with a 20-run partnership. However, Ibrahim Zadran’s dismissal by Axar Patel triggered a batting collapse. Gulbadin Naib’s resilient knock of 57 runs was a notable contribution, supported by other middle-order batters like Mohammad Nabi, Najibullah Zadran, and Karim Janat. Mujeeb Ur Rahman added a quickfire 21 runs towards the end. Despite their efforts, Afghanistan could only manage to post 172 runs in 20 overs. India’s bowlers, including Arshdeep Singh, Ravi Bishnoi, and Axar Patel, played crucial roles in restricting the opposition.

In response, India faced an early setback as skipper Rohit Sharma departed for a duck, courtesy of Fazalhaq Farooqi. However, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli steadied the ship with a 57-run partnership. After Kohli’s dismissal by Naveen-ul-Haq, Shivam Dube joined forces with Jaiswal, creating a formidable 92-run partnership. Jaiswal’s explosive 68 runs off 34 balls, and Dube’s powerful 63 runs off 32 balls, which ensured a comfortable chase for India. The team achieved the target in 16 overs for the loss of 4 wickets. Afghanistan’s bowlers, Karim Janat and Fazalhaq Farooqi, managed to pick up crucial wickets.
