Last time, Pakistan secured a 39-run victory against Afghanistan, and Rashid Khan’s side will be aiming to bounce back.
Afghanistan won the toss and opted to bat first. Speaking on the toss, Rashid Khan said, “We’d like to bat first. Running on the board is important in Sharjah. We have 3-4 spinners. Dew will play a factor. In T20s, you never know what’s a safe target.”
