AFG vs ENG Dream11 Team Prediction – Who Will Win?
England have been struggling with the ball. They were thrashed on the tour of India, and even in the first game, Australia dominated their bowlers. But at least they have firepower in their batting department, which can turn things in their favor. Though their batters have a weakness against spin and Afghanistan have a number of match-winner spinners. But one thing separate these two sides against each other is the batting depth of England.
As per our analysis and game stats and recent matches and squads of these two teams, there is a high probability that England might win this match.
Although the winner can be entirely attributed to the ground stats and its records, so as per the ground stats, the chances of the team batting second are high, so the batting-first team will likely win the Match 8 of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. However, with cricket’s unpredictable nature and Afghanistan having a strong team, this match could go either way. So please analyse on your part and then invest.
