ICC World Cup: Pakistan Vs Afghanistan match this afternoon at 2 PM

Chennai: Pakistan will be up against Afghanistan in the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 match this afternoon at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. The match is scheduled to begin at 02:00 PM.

The two teams have competed against each other on seven occasions in ODIs, with Pakistan emerging winners in all these games.

Pakistan made a winning start to their campaign with back-to-back victories over the Netherlands and Sri Lanka. However, they have stumbled in the last two matches with defeats against arch-rivals India and Australia. A win over Afghanistan will put the Babar Azam-led team's campaign back on



track.

Afghanistan has only a solitary win from four matches. However, their only win came against the reigning champions England. Afghanistan, loaded with match-winners like Rashid Khan, Mohammad Nabi, and Rahmanullah Gurbaz, possess an ability to give a scare to any top teams in the competition.

Pakistan are placed fifth in the league table with four points from four matches. A win over their neighbours today, will take them into the top four and put them in contention for the knockouts. Afghanistan, on the other hand, are languishing at the bottom of the league table with two points, following their three defeats in four matches.
