THE PREDICTION

Pakistan and Afghanistan were both victors in their opening match of the tournament and will now meet to see which side is in the driving seat to finish top of Group C. Afghanistan wasted little time in dispatching the challenge of Papua New Guinea as they skittled their opponents for just 65 to claim a 135-run success, although they will need to be better with the bat in this clash as they were bowled out in 38.2 overs. Pakistan had no such issues as they powered their way to 315 runs against Zimbabwe before bowling their opponents for 200 to also claim a big win. Both teams will fancy their chances here but Pakistan appear to be the better-rounded outfit and they should make it back-to-back wins.
