Pakistan leads the three-match series two to nil and has already won the series. Afghanistan, on the other hand, will be hoping to win this game and save face. Both of these teams met in their previous game at the Rajapaksa International Cricket Stadium, where Afghanistan won the toss and chose to bat. Following the horror of the previous match, Afghanistan made a daring move by electing to bat. Pakistan responded well, with an opening stand of 52 runs. They appeared to be scoring at the required rate. Following a promising opening stand, it was followed by a brilliant second-wicket partnership.</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>AFG vs PAK Match Details</strong></h3><p><strong>Afghanistan vs Pakistan – 3rd ODI</strong></p><p><strong>Venue: </strong>Mahinda Rajapaksa Stadium – Hambantota</p><p><strong>Date & Time:</strong> 26th August 2023 at 03:30 PM IST </p><p><strong>Live Streaming: </strong>Fancode App</p><h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong><strong>AFG vs PAK</strong> Venue Stats</strong></h3><figure class="wp-block-table"><table class="has-fixed-layout"><tbody><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Avg 1st inn score</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">332</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Avg 2nd inn score</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">320</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Win% batting 1st</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">52</td></tr><tr><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center"><strong>Win% batting 2nd</strong></td><td class="has-text-align-center" data-align="center">48</td></tr></tbody></table></figure><h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>AFG vs PAK Pitch Report</strong></h3><p>The pitch will help the spinners.

Pakistan has taken an early lead in the series, leading 1-0. Afghanistan dominated with the ball early on, but their disastrous showing with the bat handed Pakistan a 142-run victory. Haris Rauf stole the show with his 5-wicket haul of 5/18, and Shaheen Afridi also returned impressive figures of 2/9 in his 4 overs to obliterate Afghanistan’s batting lineup. Afghanistan’s one-day international winless streak against Pakistan continues. Afghanistan has been defeated three times in their last five matches.

However, Afghanistan’s batting appears to be a concern, and scoring big runs against a quality Pakistan attack will be difficult. Pakistan is our favorite to win. Considering the team combination, <strong>Pakistan is expected to win this match.</strong></p>]]></content:encoded> </item> <item> <title><![CDATA[AFG vs PAK, T20I: “People Criticize Babar…” Shadab Khan's Bold Comment On Afghanistan Loss]]></title> <link>https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/afg-vs-pak-t20i-people-criticize-babar-shadab-khans-bold-comment-on-afghanistan-loss/</link> <guid>https://www.cricketwinner.com/cricket-news/afg-vs-pak-t20i-people-criticize-babar-shadab-khans-bold-comment-on-afghanistan-loss/</guid> <pubDate>Mon, 27 Mar 2023 15:59:31 GMT</pubDate> <description><![CDATA[Shadab Khan, Pakistan's stand-in skipper and all-rounder, believes that his team's series loss to Afghanistan will have a lot of positive effects.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://media.cricketwinner.com/image/dir/afvspak.jpg" width="1280" height="720" alt="AFG vs PAK, T20I: “People Criticize Babar…” Shadab Khan's Bold Comment On Afghanistan Loss"/><p><a href="https://www.espncricinfo.com/cricketers/shadab-khan-922943" rel="nofollow">Shadab Khan</a>, Pakistan’s stand-in skipper and all-rounder, believes that his team’s series loss to Afghanistan will have a lot of positive effects.
