Afghanistan Series: Predictions

[Jemisi]

I think we will struggle a bit. Maybe 2-3 loss in the ODIs. Don't know about the T20s. A toss up 1-1, I guess.

[Kriterion_BD]

I think it will be 3-2 to AFG just because history tends to repeat itself and thats how the previous 3 series have gone.

ZIM are definitely a better side with Tarvis back in the red shirts. But the AFG play with confident arrogance (similar to the Irish). Its a clarity of thought. They will be hungry after the loss to the Irish and also knowing that unlike the ZIM team, if they don't make the WC, they don't eat.

T20's: 1-1
ODI's: Zim 5 - Afg 0

That's a bold statement considering the fact that you have never won an odi series against Afghanistan. Is this the 4th or 5th attempt?

With Taylor and Jarvis back I think that will change.

Yea I don't think this will be a walk in the park for the Afghans this time round, but I think they still have the edge.
The scoreline won't be 5-0, I can say that much. We have two world class performers back and Cremer appears to be in a good groove.
Certainly a much better side than the last time we played them but, our batting is still far too shaky and very much prone to a collapse.

I really like the arrogance and swagger of the Afghans. It's certainly something which we can take and use

All that Zimbabwe, needs to do is watch Rashid Khan's & Mujeeb's release of the bowl.

Exactly..we need to be vary of Mujeeb...though I feel he can be read from hand easily...

Hope Zimbabwe have done their homework

[strikerlube]

You can't argue that on paper Zimbabwe should flog them. Like with the experienced guys back aswell. On paper the top 6 players other than rashid would be zimbo.

On paper though doesn't mean they'll gel. Should be 3-2 or 4-1 Zim as I said unless afghan play as a better unit. Which is very possible because they are talented.

[sloandog]

I think we're all over estimating Zimbabwe here and massively underestimating Afghanistan.
By far nowhere near a walk in the park and easily going to be just as tough as the tri series.

The only bonus is that the wickets will be better to bat on and not completely reliant on spin.
