IND vs AFG Head to Head: Afghanistan is counted among those teams, which have the power to surprise the opposition team in any match. The Afghan team achieved this feat several times in the recently played World Cup 2023.

 

However, Afghanistan has no luck against India in T20 International. Afghanistan easily succumbs to Rohit's platoon in the shortest format of cricket. We are not saying this, but the head-to-head figures are telling the same story.

At the same time, one match remained inconclusive. That means Afghanistan is still waiting for its victory against India in instant cricket. However, Captain Rohit and Team India know very well that the Afghanistan team cannot be underestimated.

 

Who will have fun in Mohali?

The first T20 match between India and Afghanistan is to be played at IS Bindra Cricket Stadium in Mohali. Batsmen dominate this ground. Due to good bounce in the pitch, the ball hits the bat very well. Along with this, the outfield of this ground is also very fast, due to which it is easier to send the ball across the boundary line. However, the pitch also helps fast bowlers in the beginning.

This ground in Mohali has hosted a total of 9 T20 International matches so far. Out of these, the team batting first has won 5.
