AUS vs AFG LIVE SCORE
AUS vs AFG LIVE SCORE: At the storied Wankhede Stadium, Hashmatullah Shahidi chose to bat first after winning the toss. Pat Cummins opts to make two changes to the Australian playing eleven, inserting Mitchell Marsh and Glenn Maxwell in place of Steve Smith and Cameron Green. One adjustment for Afghanistan is the replacement of spinner Noor Ahmed with Fazalhaq Farooqi.
The Australians, who lost their first two ICC World Cup 2023 matches to South Africa and India, have had a fantastic comeback in the competition.
At the head of Australia’s batting order, David Warner has shown his detractors wrong and is still among the leading run-scorers in the competition. The Australian bowling attack has been spearheaded by the speed trio of Cummins, Starc, and Hazlewood, while wrist-spinner Adam Zampa has taken the second-most wickets in the tournament with 19.
Afghanistan, on the other hand, has had an incredible tournament at the Cricket World Cup this year. With eight points from their first seven matches, they are currently ranked sixth in the standings.
Afghanistan, who are frequently known for their spin bowling, have been dominant in every area of their WC 2023 campaign, handily defeating Pakistan and England, two of the largest teams in the competition.
In order to advance to the tournament’s semi-finals, the Afghans will need to demonstrate their mettle in their two back-to-back games, first against Australia and then against a formidable South Africa team in their next encounter.
