Afghanistan will face New Zealand in their only Test match, starting September 9 in 🍨Greater Noida.
With a largely revamped bowling attack, Afghanistan will rely on Zahir Khan, Fareed Malik and Nijat Masood to contain New Zealand’s experienced batting lineup, who are accustomed to varied conditions. Afghanistan’s batting hopes rest on Hashmatullah Shahidi, Rahmat Shah and Ibrahim Zadran.
Although New Zealand are favourites, Afghanistan could pull off an upset,ꦇ especially if the conditions are conducive to their bowling.
