by Devesh Jaganath |
Afghanistan and Bangladesh will face off in the final Super Eight match at the T20 World Cup on Tuesday morning.
The Afghans are third in the group with two points, while their opponents are bottom of the table.
The Blue Tigers and second-placed Australia are tied on two points each and if both win their final match, the top two places will be decided by net run rate.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, have to win this match and hope India beat Australia in the other game in the group to have a chance of qualifying.

Afghanistan - Bangladesh Form Analysis
There’s still everything to play for in Group 1 with all four teams still in with a chance of qualifying for the knockouts.
Afghanistan kept their tournament hopes alive by pulling off an against-the-odds victory over Australia on Sunday morning.
Batting first, they scored 148/6, led once again by Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who scored 60 runs off 49 balls. He was supported brilliantly by Ibrahim Zadran’s knock of 51 (48).
With the ball, Gulbadin Naib and Naveen-ul-Haq did the damage, with both players recording tournament-best figures of 4/20 and 3/20, respectively, as the side bowled out the Aussies for just 127 in 19.2 overs.
Meanwhile, Bangladesh head into this match having lost both their Super Eight matches and on the verge of elimination.
They went down to the Australians in the first game by 28 runs via the (DLS method) and were no match for India in game two, where they lost by 50 runs, chasing a target of 196.
The equation is simple for the Tigers - they must win and hope for a big slice of luck in the other game.
In head-to-head matches between these sides, Bangladesh have won five of the 11 matches played, while Afghanistan have won six.
