T20 World Cup | IND vs AFG: We can defeat India, says Hamid Hassan

Afghanistan’s Hamid Hassan has put his weight behind the side and said that it is a “complete team” especially with an equipped middle order and a bunch of world-class spinners. 

“Afghanistan is a very good batting or bowling, fielding has also improved. We have the best spinners in the world, Nabi, Rashid and Mujeeb and it is a proper complete team,” he said. 

“If you see our top order it sometimes clicks or sometimes doesn’t click but our middle order is getting runs and that’s a good sign. The good news is that we haven’t been all out in the games, we have only lost five or six wickets and we have a long batting side until number nine,” said Hassan while replying to a query from ANI.

Hassan further went on to add that the Afghan team does stand a chance to clinch a win against India in the next fixture. “We have the good opportunity against India if we put good runs on board we can defeat them by bowling and fielding,” he said.

India are yet to win a match in the ongoing T20 World Cup after they suffered defeats against Pakistan and New Zealand. Afghanistan on the other side have won two out of the three matches that they have played and have four points under their belt.
