In the third showdown of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023, we’re about to see a thrilling encounter between Team Bangladesh and Team Afghanistan on October 7th. And guess where? The scenic Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala will be the backdrop.
Afghanistan’s got some momentum, bagging a six-wicket victory over the Lankans through DLS in Guwahati’s warm-up match. That said, their opening match against the Proteas in Thiruvananthapuram was a washout due to relentless rain showers. Reflecting back on the 2023 Asia Cup, things weren’t sunny for them either; they faced defeats from both Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, leading to their early exit.
Switching gears to Bangladesh, they started with a bang defeating Sri Lanka with ease in Guwahati. But the ride got a bit bumpy when they encountered the reigning champions, England, and took a hit with a four-wicket loss (again, DLS in play) at the same ground.
