Afghanistan has won matches and series against West Indies and Zimbabwe, but winning a series against Bangladesh is definitely an improvement. They are showing the world cricket that they are here to inspire and win. Both the matches seemed like walk in a park for them. Bangladesh was completely helpless. They outperformed in every aspect of the game. They showed not only the enthusiasm but also the maturity. This is a well-deserved win for them. Hey would be thinking of a clean sweep, while Bangladesh would be looking to end the series on a better note. There are a lot of alarming question for Bangladesh now.

Afganistan vs Bangladesh 3rd T20 Fantasy Cricket Preview/Playing 11
Afghanistan:
They have secured their win and now they are free to choose between a clean-sweep, or, give a chance to the benched players to give them some exposure as well. It really sounds amazing to hear that a young team as Afghanistan has grown so much; that they have this option now. They have fought against all odds and this victory should just be the beginning of a bright future. This current form of theirs should definitely alarm other teams to reconsider their plans against Afghanistan in world cup next year. They should go with the same team and try to sweep this series away from Bangladesh with one last blow.
Bangladesh:
They seemed under so much pressure in last match as if they were playing some A-listed team. They never seemed confident on the ground whether with bat or ball. They seemed like they were completely out of touch and no one else can be blamed for this. The Afgans were good but they performed so well because Bangladesh decided to underperform. They will have to give in everything for this last match to at least end the series with some grace. They will be depending on the likes of Shakib, Tamim Iqbal, Mahmudullah to make a comeback. They might try Ariful Haque and Mehdy Hasan Miraz to improve their batting and bowling respectively on a spinning track.
