NED vs AFG LIVE SCORE: Rahmat, Shahidi score fifties as Afghanistan beat Netherlands by 7 wickets

NED vs AFG LIVE SCORE: Afghanistan’s chances of making it to the World Cup semifinals for the first time rest solely on them after they have already won three games. Luck is not a factor; their performance is the only thing that matters. In ODI 34, they take on the Netherlands, a team that has also performed well above their weight.

After winning the toss, captain Scott Edwards of the Netherlands chose to bat. The Flying Dutch, who are the only team to have upset South Africa in this tournament, got back on track with a campaign-reviving victory over battered Bangladesh.

In the nine ODIs between the two teams, Afghanistan has prevailed seven times while the Netherlands has won twice. They’ve never shared a World Cup match.

The Lucknow pitch is predicted to help spinners, and the Afghans, with their four-pronged spin assault of Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, and Mohammed Nabi, should benefit greatly from it. Given that the Netherlands is the second-slowest team in this World Cup against spin (4.70 runs per over), this could be a significant influence.
