Afghanistan Team Batting Line-Up
Afghanistan’s main batting line-up has Red Bowl hard hitters in the ODI format. Hazratullah Zazai, Rehmanullah Garbaz, Najeebullah Zardan, and Azmatullah Umarzai are reserved as openers for their team in Asia Cup 2023.
Well, Afghanistan has always lacked quality pace attacks as the team currently relies on medium pacers. The absence of the pace attackers in the Cricket Asia Cup 2023 will surely bother them. However, Naveen-ul-Haq, Mohammad Saleem, and Fazal-ul-Haq Farooqui will be the mainstream bowlers for them.
