THE PREDICTION

As expected, whilst United Arab Emirates certainly made it competitive, it was Afghanistan who triumphed in the first T20i. This was largely thanks to the contributions of Rashid Khan with the ball, but a middle order hitter with the bat in Karim Janat. The discovery of Janat would be a big fillet for Afghanistan, who have struggled over the years with their batting depth. The fact that UAE utilised eight bowlers in the last game tells us that they struggled to get foothold in the game against the Afghanistan line-up and that is likely to prove the case again here, so back the tourists to win and double their lead in the series.
