Fantasy Prediction - ICC T20 World Cup 2021 Match 17: Afghanistan vs. Scotland


Preview


Afghanistan and Scotland will go head to head in the 17th match of the ICC T20 World Cup, Afghanistan vs Scotland. With a top ranking in Group B as a result of their impressive performances so far, Scotland will be looking to continue their winning streak against Afghanistan on Monday.


Scotland is in good shape ahead of the Super 12 stage of the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier. They've won all three games in the Group Stage, and Richie Berrington has led the charge with scoring. He played a huge part in their 17-run win against Papua New Guinea, scoring 70 runs at a stunning pace of 40 balls.


Skipper, Kyle Coetzer has been a powerhouse of a player. In the last match against Oman, he made a 41-run knock-off of 28 balls in the last game. He should have a lot of confidence going into the next match. However, George Munsey has been disappointing thus far in the tournament. Sadly, he has had some hot and cold periods on the field. Though he has yet to score a big score, he's looked like he's still got it.


In the upcoming match, Afghanistan will be playing their first game of the tournament. Rashid Khan, Mohammad Nabi, and Mujeeb Ur Rahman can be expected to do well on a slow and sluggish wicket of Sharjah.


Rahmanullah Gurbaz is arguably the best T20 player in Afghanistan. His range of shots makes him a true T20 specialist. In 13 international games, he has scored an impressive 446 runs at an average of 34.3. What makes Afghanistan such a formidable T20 team is its strong batting lineup. With Hazratullah Zazai and Mohammad Shahzad in the mix, they'll be looking to do big things in the 2021 T20 World Cup, starting on Monday.


Considering the placid ground conditions at Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Afghanistan's spinners are likely to make a big impact in the game.
