Topmost Picks for AFG vs AUS Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Australia

• Travis Head -He could be one of Australia’s weapons to negate Rashid Khan’s spin. As a left-hander, the ball would be spinning into Head, giving him the opportunity to access the legside.
• Adam Zampa – Zampa is currently their highest wicket-taker in the tournament with 11 wickets.

Top Picks – Afghanistan

• Rahmanullah Gurbaz – The keeper made 162 in this T20I world cup this month and his strike-rate was between 164 and 180 throughout the series.
• Fazalhaq Farooqi – The right-arm fast bowler has endured a tough few years with injuries but he impressed in both of his appearances against Pakistan, picking up wickets in both.

AFG vs AUS Probable Winners:

Afghanistan will rely on its match-winners to deliver on the big stage. Mitchell Marsh, Australia’s captain, has been a member of Perth Scorchers squads that have won the Big Bash League, which is played in Australia. He’ll know how to deal with pressure. Australia’s experience with ICC World Cup tournaments could come through in this one. However, Afghanistan will want to put up a fight against the Australians. Considering the team combination, Australia are expected to win this match.
