India are coming off a loss in both their games in the super stage of the Asia Cup 2022. They lost to Pakistan in their opening game of the super fours but failed to turn the tables around as they suffered a loss against Sri Lanka in a close-fought contest. They have failed to fire in unison and will be eager to get their combination right in the last game of the tournament.
Afghanistan, on the other hand, lost to Sri Lanka after qualifying to the super four. They needed a win to stay alive in the competition against Pakistan. They tried their level best but failed to hold their nerves in the final stages of the game as they suffered a heart-breaking loss against Pakistan to get knocked out of the competition. The Afghan side will look to finish the competition on a high on Thursday.
