What Have The Two Teams Done Recently?
Afghanistan
Afghanistan, who started playing ODI cricket in 2009, entered this series with a stunning performance against South Africa in an ODI series which was held in Sharjah itself. While they lost the final game of that series, they had grabbed the trophy by then by winning the first two games there.
Earlier they had also beaten Ireland 2-0 at that very venue.
In the first game of this series, they cruised to a 92-run win over Bangladesh.
Overall, Afghanistan are 82-83 on win-loss in this format.
Bangladesh
Bangladesh have had a lot going on, both on and off the field. Leaving the political ramblings aside, their most recent ODI series came in March this year and surprise, surprise, they had managed to beat Sri Lanka 2-1 in that.
Later they made the Super Eight stage of the T20 World Cup at the expense of Sri Lanka, but went on to lose all their games there. A 2-0 win in the Test series in Pakistan would have given them the right vibes but since then they have been beaten four times in a row in Test match cricket.
They looked under-cooked in their opener against Afghanistan and fell to an easy defeat chasing 236 for a win.
Afghanistan vs Bangladesh Head-to-Head Stats
- Overall Afghanistan vs Bangladesh ODI Head-to-Head: There have been 17 previous ODIs played between these two teams and Bangladesh leads 10-7. This includes Afghanistan’s victory in the opening game of the series here in Sharjah.
- The last time they met before the start of this series was at the 2023 World Cup in Dharamsala in which Bangladesh had chased down Afghanistan’s score with much ease, with six balls and 92 balls to spare.

Afghanistan vs Bangladesh 2nd ODI Preview & Predictions with Latest Odds*
Afghanistan have almost made Sharjah their fortress. They have played 29 games at this ground including the opener of this series and won 19 of them. Over their nine matches here, Afghanistan has a win-loss record of 8-1.
And they bossed the contest in the opener with Allah Mohammad Ghazanfar grabbing a stunning 6/26 from his 6.3 overs to run through the Bangladeshi line-up.
Earlier in the contest, Afghanistan recovered from 35 for four and 71 for five to post a challenging 235 on the board.
What was interesting to see was that Bangladesh relied on their pacers to do the damage with nine of the wickets scalped by their seamers (with one run-out) while it was the complete reverse when Afghanistan bowled – nine were taken by the spinners.
Expecting Afghanistan to walk into this one with a lot of confidence and most likely emerge winners again.
