India (IND) will face Afghanistan (AFG) in the ninth match of the World Cup 2023. The match will be at the Arun Jaitely Cricket Stadium in New Delhi on Wednesday, 11th October, at 2:00 PM IST. Ahead of the game, here is a look at the top player picks, the important player stats, the top captain and vice-captain choices and the best-predicted XIs for the fantasy contests of the match. 

India have put their strongest foot forward to start their campaign in the World Cup 2023. They defeated Australia at Chennai by six wickets and crossed one of the most challenging obstacles at the very beginning. Rohit Sharma and his men will now look to maintain their form, win the next match, and climb up further in the points table. Shubman Gill is still under the weather and will not be available for selection in this game. Ishan Kishan will probably continue to open for India in his absence.

Afghanistan will be looking to work on their temperament. They started off nicely against Bangladesh but then gradually gave it away. Hasmatullah Shahidi and his unit will try to learn from their mistakes quickly and give a tough fight to the hosts.

IND vs AFG, Match 8: Top Player Picks

Rohit Sharma (IND)

• Rohit Sharma failed to deliver in the first match. But given how the wicket behaved in the last match, it is tailor-made for Sharma. There is every chance Rohit will go big in this match, making him a top pick for this game. 

Virat Kohli (IND)

• Virat Kohli was seen doing his usual thing. He batted with composure on a tricky wicket and bailed the team out of a difficult situation. With the form behind him, it can be expected that Kohli will score runs at his home ground.

Shreyas Iyer (IND)

• Shreyas Iyer is one of those three batters who failed to get off the mark in the previous match. But, given the nature of the wicket, it is expected that if he gets a chance to ba, Iyer will play a significant knock. 

Ibrahim Zadran (AFG)

• Ibrahim Zadran has a solid technique and is a well-sorted batter. Zadran might play a significant role on a flat track and will be the most important pick from the Afghanistan side for this match.
