Afghanistan is ranked fourth in the points table after losing to New Zealand in their first game, with every game from now on a must-win. Five teams are fighting for the first two spots, with South Africa leading the way with an impressive NRR. A Proteas victory in this match would reduce Afghanistan's chances of advancing to the next round. South Africa began strongly with a convincing victory over Canada in the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. They include a dream pacers' team, as well as skilled players at the top order. Afghanistan's learning curve has been long, and it keeps on making old mistakes.
