BAN vs AFG Dream11 Prediction

Bangladesh and Afghanistan will lock horns against each other in the fourth match of the ongoing Asia Cup 2023. The BAN vs AFG contest will take place at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Pakistan. It will be a crucial match for both the teams as it can decide their fate in the competition.

Bangladesh will have to win the game at any cost to keep alive their hopes of progressing ahead in Asia Cup 2023. The Bangla Tigers are currently languishing at the bottom of the points table in Group B after losing their first game against defending champions Sri Lanka by 5 wickets.

The Shakib Al Hasan-led side was all out for a modest total of 164 runs. With the ball, they began well but the score was too low to defend. Afghanistan, on the other hand, are yet to open their campaign in Asia Cup 2023 and have the opportunity to seal a place in the Super 4 by winning the game against Bangladesh on Sunday (September 4).
