PAK vs AFG: Pakistan and Afghanistan clash today in the World Cup, know who won over whom

If Pakistan wants to get its campaign back on track in the World Cup 2023, then it will have to play the Afghanistan spinners very cautiously in the match to be held on Monday on the Chepauk pitch which is considered favorable for slow bowlers. After losing to India and Australia in the last two matches, Pakistan will have to win this match at any cost to keep their hopes alive. This match will be played today from 2 pm. Before this match, do you know how the head-to-head record of Pakistan and Afghanistan has been?

Talking about the head-to-head record of Pakistan and Afghanistan, so far 7 ODI matches have been played between the two teams. Pakistan has won all these seven matches. At the same time, till now one match between the two was played in the World Cup in 2019, in which Pakistan defeated Afghanistan by three wickets. Thus far, Pakistan has the upper hand, but it will have to face a tough challenge from the Afghan team on the spin track of Chepauk.

In the World Cup 2023, Pakistan has four points from four matches and is in fifth position in the table. Pakistan's batsmen have not been able to perform well against the spinners so far, which is a matter of concern for them. Afghanistan's spin department is very strong. The spin trio of Mohammad Nabi and Mujeeb Ur Rahman, led by Rashid Khan, has performed brilliantly so far. The Afghan team will enter with the intention of causing another upset.

Pakistan's batsmen, especially captain Babar Azam, will have to play a good innings. Babar has not been able to perform well in the tournament so far. Mohammad Rizwan has impressed and a big innings will be expected from him in this match. Saud Shakeel and Iftikhar Ahmed will also have to live up to the expectations.
