1st ODI | Bangladesh v Afghanistan – 2023 Men’s ODI Series | Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chattogram
Bangladesh and Afghanistan are scheduled to play the first match of their three-match ODI series on Wednesday, July 5, at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram. Tamim Iqbal will lead Bangladesh, but his form with the bat has been a concern. Shakib Al Hasan’s return to the team will bolster Bangladesh, while Afif Hossain Dhrubo will be looking to prove a point, and Najmul Hossain Shanto has been in good form. Mehidy Hasan Miraz has been impressive as an all-rounder, and Bangladesh’s pace battery has been exceptional. Afghanistan will have Rashid Khan and Mujeeb Ur Rahman back after they missed the only Test, and Ibrahim Zadran was in good form in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. Left-arm pacer Fazalhaq Farooqi has been a threat to Bangladesh’s batters, and Afghanistan will be relying on him as well.
