On Thursday, January 11, the opening Twenty20 international of the three-match series will take place in Mohali between India and Afghanistan.
The Men in Blue’s strategy for the rubber, their final T20I assignment before the 2024 T20 World Cup, has already been hinted at in a few ways. They have limited options as well because they were selective in who they included in their team.
Lets have a look at the fantasy 11 for the 1st T20 against Afghanistan.
Playing conditions at Mohali, the venue for the 1st T20
The Punjab Cricket Association Is Possessing a 30,000 seat capacity, Bindra Stadium in Mohali has comparatively longer border dimensions than the majority of other stadiums in the nation.
It is located in northern India and has long been a favored location for batters. The weather and high altitude mean that dew always has an impact on the game. With an average boundary length of 75 meters, the ground is modest, making it a perfect batting pitch for easy four and six conversions. Additionally, Shubman Gill, who had a breakthrough season in the previous home season, calls this place home.
India Squad
Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Tilak Varma, Rinku Singh, Jitesh Sharma (wk), Sanju Samson (wk), Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi, Kuldeep Yadav, Arshdeep Singh, Avesh Khan, and Mukesh Kumar are the members of Team India’s roster for the Afghanistan T20 Internationals.
Afghanistan Squad
Hazratullah Zazai, Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Ibrahim Zadran (C), Najibullah Zadran, Mohammad Nabi, Azmatullah Omarzai, Mujeeb-ur-Rahman, Sharafuddin Ashraf, Qais Ahmad, Noor Ahmad/Naveen-ul-Haq, Fazalhaq Farooqi.
