AFG vs SA Prediction, Champions Trophy 2025: Probable Playing 11

Afghanistan and South Africa will square off in an exciting Group B match at the National Bank Stadium in Karachi on February 21 as part of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

Afghanistan is playing in the Champions Trophy for the first time, and South Africa is looking to build on their recent success in ICC competitions.



Afghanistan vs South Africa CT 2025 Schedule

Date: February 21, 2025

Time: 2:30 PM IST (Toss at 2:00 PM IST)

Venue: National Bank Stadium, Karachi

The batting-friendly surface of Karachi's National Bank Stadium has long been known for its steady bounce, which promotes stroke play. Later in the match, spinners might get help. A high-scoring match could be on the cards because of the predicted bright skies and pleasant weather.

Afghanistan receives its first taste of the Champions Trophy following their recent surge in the ICC competitions. Although they aren't the clear favorites, they can certainly take the giants by storm. However, it is South Africa's responsibility to go beyond their obstacles and do well during the competition.

South Africa against Afghanistan Which team will win AFG vs. SA?

South Africa comes into the game with a strong team and a track record of winning ICC tournaments, including making it to the 2024 T20 World Cup final and the 2023 ODI World Cup semifinals. They have an advantage because of their well-balanced team. But Afghanistan's ascent in international cricket, displayed by their strong spin attack and previous upsets of elite nations, indicates they should not be taken lightly. How well Afghanistan's batsmen manage South Africa's pace attack and how well their spinners can put South Africa's hitters on the defensive could determine the result.

AFG vs. SA Who Will Win:

We believe Afghanistan can pull off a huge upset and deal the Proteas a serious setback, even though South Africa will be the clear favorite to win.

AFG vs SA Predicted Playing 11

Afghanistan: Hashmatullah Shahidi (c), Ibrahim Zadran, Rahmat Shah, Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Mohammad Nabi, Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Gulbadin Naib, and Azmatullah Omarzai

South Africa: David Miller, Wiaan Mulder, Marco Jansen, Kagiso Rabada, Keshav Maharaj, Tabraiz Shamsi, Ryan Rickelton, Matthew Breetzke, Rassie van de Dussen, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), and Temba Bavuma (c)

Australian Star Statement on the Finals of the ODI World Cup 2023

Image
The batman of the Australian cricket team, Marnus Labuschagne, said he had “never seen” someone bowl like the way Pat Cummins did during the finals of the World Cup against India, which they won by six wickets for a record-extending sixth title. Cummins had the best economy rate in the 10 overs he had bowled and also grabbed two wickets to restrict Rohit Sharma’s side to 240. With an economy rate of 3.40 to go with the wickets of Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer, Cummins put the skids on India. Labuschagne said, “I think that was certainly Pat’s best day with the ball.” Labuschagne, who scored an unbeaten half-century in the final, said, “I think I’ve never seen someone bowl the sequence Cummins did, bowling the right balls at the right time that he did. I haven’t seen that from a middle-overs bowler or a pace bowler, especially in a long time. A lot of credit has to go to him.” Labuschagne also praised the tactical acumen of coach Andrew McDonald, saying he and the team analyst prepared t...
