Afghanistan wins the toss and bats first against India
Afghanistan won the toss and opted to bat first against India in their second match of the ICC Cricket World Cup tournament.
Afghan Voice Agency (AVA)_Monitoring, This comes after India beat Australia by six wickets in a low-scoring thriller at Chennai last week and Afghanistan lost its opening game to Bangladesh by six wickets in Dharamsala.
 
On why he opted to bat first, Hashmatullah Shahidi, Afghanistan’s captain, expressed his confidence in the pitch, saying it was favorable for batting. He said he aimed to set a challenging target for India.
 
India has made one change to its line-up, with bowling allrounder Shardul Thakur replacing off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin.
 
Afghanistan has retained the same line-up from Dharamsala and is determined to up their game, but will be wary of left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja, who is coming off a haul of 3-28 against Australia.
