Shahidi will again play an important role if Afghanistan chase against the Netherlands.

Scott Edwards : Netherlands captain Scott Edwards keeps chipping in with viatal cameos lower down the order. If Netherlands lose early wickets then Edwards’ resilience will come to the team’s rescue And he had already scored two fifty for the orange army in a very crucial situation.

Rashid Khan : Rashid Khan is a talented Afghan cricketer known for his exceptional skills as a leg-spin bowler and his ability to make an impact with both bat and ball.

Rahmanullah Gurbaz had to start doing the wicket-keeping job in the last game because Ikram Alikhil hurt his little finger on his right hand while trying to catch the ball. Though Ikram is Fit to play tomorrow’s match.
