AFG vs BAN First ODI match Preview, Probable XI, Head-to-Head

Afghanistan and Bangladesh are set to go head-to-head in a three-match ODI series in the United Arab Emirates. The opening game is slated to take place at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on November 6 at 3:30 PM IST. Afghanistan has been out of action since September. They last played an ODI series against South Africa in the UAE and registered a 2-1 victory in the three-match assignment. It was Afghanistan’s first-ever bilateral series win over the Proteas.

Bangladesh, on the other hand, have endured much disappointment over the last few months. They were whitewashed by India in a T20I series before losing two Tests in South Africa. Bangladesh last featured in a 50-over assignment in March when they toured Sri Lanka to play three ODIs. The Najmul Hosain Shanto-led side won the overseas series 2-1.

Afghanistan will be the favourites in the upcoming first ODI, thanks to their familiarity with the conditions in Sharjah. Bangladesh, on the other hand, are returning to the venue for an ODI game after 29 years since the 1995 Asia Cup. They, however, played three T20Is at Sharjah in recent times.
