The most awaiting tournament in the cricket world, the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019, is just around the corner, and the excitement and anticipation among the fans is higher than ever. The opening warm-up game is set to be played tomorrow between Pakistan and Afghanistan at the County Ground, Bristol.
Pakistan will be desperate to get back to winning ways after losing their last nine games, while Afghanistan would be hoping to upset their Asian rivals and get some confidence going into the mega event.
Pakistan have been in terrible form in limited-overs cricket of late. Having being whitewashed in two back-to-back ODI series, they would be looking to fix their issues in the two warm-up matches.
Gulbadin Naib has been appointed Afghanistan’s new ODI captain in place of Asghar Afghan. Hazratullah Zazai, Mohammad Shehzad and Asghar Afghan will be crucial in the batting lineup, while the skipper will lead the bowling attack along with Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi.
