IND vs AFG Probable Winners:
Both teams have strong T20I records, but Afghanistan will be well aware that beating India at home in any format is a difficult task. Afghanistan has an opportunity to target India’s pace attack, which is missing some of its key players, but the rest of India’s team is nearly at full strength. We predict that India will win this game. Considering the team combination, India is expected to win this match.
