That beast mentality to play fearless cricket in knock-out games sets them apart from others. They dominated the first half of the competition and are all set to make another entry into the final four.

Noor Ahmed and Rashid Khan will have a significant role in making things in control of their side. Afghanistan already lost to India so it is kind of a virtual knockout contest for them if they are to pick the flight of the final four.

Afghanistan vs Australia: Players To Watch Out For

Following players will have a key role to play in the match 48 of the T20 World Cup 2024.

Travis Head

The recent IPL 2024 has shown everyone the devastating existence of Travis Head.

Travis Head

He has excelled to a different level in terms of hitting ability and makes his presence felt.

Aussies call him a clutch player, someone who steps up for the side in a do-or-die game.

His hundred against India in the CWC 2023 final broke the dreams of 1.4 billion people and led Australia to their sixth ICC 50-over World Cup trophy.

Everyone remembers these big times in cricket and the one who steps up in those crunch times to make their side win championships will always have earned the respect and appreciation of of fans worldwide.

Under the captaincy of Mitchell Marsh, the Aussies are once again one of the favorites to make it to the top four.

Travis Head will have a substantial role in the powerplay to get them off to a terrific start.

The T20 World Cup 2024 has been quiet for him so far but it is never too late to get the form back in the business end of the competition.

Normally he takes on against the spinners and targets the mid-wicket area but it will be interesting to see how he approaches his game against Rashid Khan and Noor Ahmed.

Adam Zampa

In the last four to five years Adam Zampa has been the premium spinner of Australia in limited-overs cricket.

He has been entrusted with the responsibility once again along with Ashton Agar to cover the middle overs effectively.

The leg spinner is a very clever operator and he is probably the least discussed individual in the Aussie setup and is very underrated.

The most captivating thing about his bowling is the control by which he bowls and he isn't afraid even against the left-handers.

His googly is the main weapon and mixes it up with flippers and traditional leg spin.

In the ongoing World Cup, he has claimed nine wickets so far in four games at an average of 16. Though his economy has been on the higher side with nearly touching 10.5 but as long as he keeps on taking wickets, Mitchell Marsh and co will be in a strong position.

The conditions of West Indies are also more suitable to his style of bowling and he will be a key player for the Men in Yellow when they contest against Afghanistan.

The T20i stats of Adam Zampa are meticulous and it showcases his consistency in the performances.

The 32-year-old has 84 representations in T20i for the Yellow jersey side and has claimed 101 wickets at a decent economy of 7.20.

Given the fact that he has played a lot of his T20 cricket in Australia where conditions are not highly supportive for the spinners, these stats are worth appreciating.

Afghanistan vs Australia Match Prediction

Their bowling seems to be gelled well under the leadership of Rashid Khan who himself is a master of putting opposition under pressure.

It all hopes to be a close game and Afghanistan will leave no stone unturned to make things difficult for Aussies.

From all the resources, ability of the batters, and the current form, it shouldn't be surprising that Kangaroos get the two points from the encounter against Afghanistan.

The balance of their side is more equipped and they are one of the red-hot favorites to get their hands on the ICC trophy in two back-to-back years.

From Afghanistan’s point of view, a loss here which is most likely to happen would end their journey in Super 8s.

They already lost to India badly and getting it wrong on the second occasion as well would take them out of the World Cup.

Based on Afghanistan vs Australia match prediction, Australia is expected to emerge victorious in the upcoming T20 World Cup match against Afghanistan on June 22nd.
