Toss: Bangladesh won the toss and chose to bat
Bangladesh (Playing XI): Tanzid Hasan, Soumya Sarkar, Zakir Hasan, Mehdi Hasan Miraz (c), Tohid Hridavi, Mahmudullah, Jakir Ali (w), Nasoom Ahmed, Nahid Rana, Shariful Islam, Mustafizur Rahman.
Afghanistan (Playing XI): Rahmanullah Gurbaz (W), Siddiqullah Atal, Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi (C), Azmatullah Omarzai, Mohammad Nabi, Gulbuddin Naib, Rashid Khan, Allah Ghazanfar, Nanjialia Carrot, Fazlul Haq Farooqi .
Shahidi: The stadium is new. It’s a new layer and looks drier and rougher. I think it will turn from the beginning. The chase is a bit tough here. We will try to learn from the mistakes we made in the last match and try to perform well today. We talked about that (strikeout rotation). When we played (batting in the second ODI), it was almost like a fourth innings track. We go with the same team.
Mahdi: We will strike first. The wicket looks good in the first innings. Good moment for me (to play my 100th ODI). Two changes. Shantu is injured, Taskin is not playing. Zakir and Nahid Rana are playing.
