BAN vs AFG 3rd ODI Match Prediction & Betting Tips
Bangladesh will look to salvage pride when they take on Afghanistan in the 3rd and final ODI. The match is scheduled to start at 1:30 PM IST at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on July 11/
After losing the first ODI by 17 runs, Bangladesh suffered yet another thrashing from Afghanistan as the team lost the game by 142. Afghanistan have been superb in the series and their performance in the second ODI is a clear-cut message to the teams to not take them lightly in the ODI World Cup, which will be played in similar conditions.
Speaking about the visitors’ performance in the 2nd ODI, a magnificent 145 by Rahmanullah Gurbaz and 100 by Ibrahim Zadran helped Afghanistan post a solid 331-9 in 50 overs before Fazalhaq Farooqui, Rashid Khan and Mujeeb ur Rahman joined hands to bowl out Bangladesh for a mere 189. The twin defeats mean that Bangladesh have lost the ODI series.

Bangladesh Team News & Playing 11
BAN Team News
Bangladesh captain Tamim Iqbal took a U-turn and came out of retirement a day after announcing his shock retirement from cricket. Tamim, however, will not play the ongoing series. Litton Das has been named captain.
BAN Key Players
- Shakib Al Hasan- Shakib Al Hasan’s recent performance has not been great but it goes without saying that he is the most important player in Bangladesh and the team needs him to raise his game if the hosts have to win the final game.
- Mushfiqur Rahim: The veteran batter scored 69 and salvaged some respect for the Bangladesh team. Rahim might bat up in the 3rd ODI to negate the threat of Rashid and Mujeeb as he is a very good player of spin.
- Mustafizur Rahman- Mustafizur Rahman picked 2 wickets in the second ODI. He is a fine bowler and has the responsibility of restricting the run flow in the final overs, exactly what he did in the last game as Afghanistan once looked set for a 350+ score.
BAN Team Form
Bangladesh has delivered a poor show in the ongoing series as neither batters nor bowlers have found form for the team.

AFG Team News
Afghanistan have won the series but they would like to clean-sweep Bangladesh ahead of the ODI World Cup. They are likely to play the same team.
AFG Key Players
- Rahmanullah Gurbaz- Rahmanullah Gurbaz proved his credentials as one of the top talents in cricket at the moment after he played a wonderful 145-run knock in the second ODI. Gurbaz, when on song, will help Afghanistan post big runs.

- Rashid Khan- Rashid Khan is rated as one of the best bowlers in cricket at the moment and he once again proved his match-winning skills when he bowled a spell of 2-28 in the second ODI.
AFG Team Form
Afghanistan have been brilliant in the series, especially the bowlers who have not allowed Bangladesh to go past 200 in both games.
Afghanistan Predicted Playing 11
Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Ibrahim Zadran, Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi (C), Mohammad Nabi, Najibullah Zadran, Azmatullah Omarzai, Rashid Khan, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Saleem Saifi

Who will win Bangladesh vs Afghanistan 3rd ODI Match?
Bangladesh have been blown away by the visitors but the odds are still in favour of the hosts. However, we would suggest backing Afghanistan to win given the way the team has played. Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran scored centuries in the last game while the team is laced with multiple other good batters as well. The biggest strength of the Afghan team has been their bowling trio of Fazalhaq Farooqui, Rashid Khan and Mujeeb ur Rahman who have bamboozled Bangladesh batters.
🏆 Bangladesh vs Afghanistan Prediction
Bangladesh started the series as favourites but Afghanistan have shown them the mirror that the team needs massive improvement. The problem for Bangladesh has been the form of batters who have looked clueless against the Afghan attack.
The visitors on the other hand have shown that runs are not tough to come by on this wicket with Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran scoring tons. Given the team’s recent form and Afghanistan’s stellar bowling unit which has been on fire in the series, Afghanistan will start the match as favourites.
