Australia are on a five match winning streak and just a win away from cementing a place in the semis. Australia bounced back well after losing the first two games to India and South Africa. A win over Afghanistan will confirm a place in the semis for Australia. The team has picked great momentum and will fancy winning against Afghanistan.
Afghanistan have been brilliant in the World Cup, beating England, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Netherlands. They need two wins to qualify for the semis but their matches are against Australia and South Africa. The team has beaten big teams before and has the skills to pull off a surprise against Australia and South Africa.
Let’s take a look at the dream11 team prediction for this match.
The pitch will be flat and good for run scoring. Wankhede is always supportive of batters and if both teams play to their potential, we will be in for a high scoring game.
The weather will be cloudy and there is no threat of rain. The temperature will range between 32 and 27 degrees.

Travis Head will be eager to make an impact after failure against England. He scored a blazing century against New Zealand in his first match of the tournament so he has some great form behind him.
David Warner has been in great form in World Cup 2023. He has scored 428 runs in the tournament. On a flat Wankhede surface, Warner will be eyeing a big score against Afghanistan. He is one of the best players of spin so he can be backed to come good.
Adam Zampa has enjoyed a great run in World Cup 2023, taking 19 wickets in seven games. He is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament and will be eyeing another great return.
Rahmanullah Gurbaz is a match-winner for Afghanistan. He has blown hot and cold but he is very much capable to score runs against the potent Aussie bowling lineup. A big innings from Gurbaz will make the match very interesting.
Rashid Khan has not taken many wickets in the tournament but he has been very economical. Rashid would like to bag a few wickets against Australia and boost Afghanistan’s chances of a win.
