Speaking at the toss, Shahidi said, "We want to bowl first. Weather conditions are also suitable and the wicket is also spicy so we want to take advantage of the first ten overs. I have spoken to the senior guys and they have given a lot of information regarding the conditions. Hopefully, we will do well here."
ZIM captain Craig Irvine asserted that they would have bowled first. He said, "We also would have bowled but having been put into bat, we will try to put up a decent score on the board. Our top-order in the T20s was good but the middle order has been letting us down. Hopefully, we can correct that through these three games. Ben Curran is making his debut today. Also, Newman Nyamhuri is making his debut."
Teams:
Afghanistan (Playing XI): Sediqullah Atal, Abdul Malik, Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi(c), Azmatullah Omarzai, Mohammad Nabi, Ikram Alikhil(w), Rashid Khan, AM Ghazanfar, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Naveed Zadran
On the other hand, South Korea secured their first win of the tournament with a 3-2 victory over China. Goals from Hyeonhong, Junghoo, and Jihun (55') clinched the win for their side.
China got off to a positive start as they kept the ball under control, and made it difficult for the Koreans to break through.
Zimbabwe (Playing XI): Tadiwanashe Marumani(w), Ben Curran, Dion Myers, Craig Ervine(c), Sean Williams, Sikandar Raza, Brian Bennett, Newman Nyamhuri, Richard Ngarava, Blessing Muzarabani, Trevor Gwandu
Ahead of the 1st ODI, the Afghanistan cricket board had announced on X (formerly Twitter) that their star batter Rahmanullah Gurbaz was ruled out of the ODI series.
