A spectacular duel awaits the spectators in Group 1 of the Super-8 stages. Afghanistan and India will square off in a major encounter on Thursday in Barbados as the two Asian superpowers prepare to battle it out to win their first game of the upcoming T20 World Cup 2024.
Afghanistan (AFG) won their first three games in a row by controlling the group phase stages. They finished the group as the second-place team after losing by 104 runs against West Indies. In addition to having a strong batting lineup, the Afghans have a variety of all-round players that can swing the game. The bowling unit is a tough team because they are also playing at full capacity.
India (IND) leads their Group A standings after four games played with seven points. With victories over Pakistan, Ireland, and the United States, India advanced to the Super-8 stages with little difficulty. The form of seasoned batting pair Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will be the Indian team’s biggest concern because Kohli hasn’t hit a single blow with the bat yet.

PITCH REPORT
On Thursday, there is a chance of showers during the day. Anticipate that the captain will toss and bowl first. The bounce and pace of the Barbados surface are well-known, and the bowlers will have good movement. In recent years, chasing teams have performed admirably at this location; on this pitch, a score between 145 and 160 should be a decent total.
