India lead 2-0 in the three-match T20I series against Afghanistan
The Indian cricket team, led by Rohit Sharma, is poised for a historic T20I whitewash against Afghanistan, having secured victory in the first two matches of the three-game series. A win in the upcoming match in Bengaluru would mark India’s ninth whitewash in T20I history, surpassing the joint record with Pakistan. The team’s aggressive approach, notably displayed by players like Shivam Dube and Virat Kohli, has been a departure from their previous strategy, contributing to consecutive six-wicket wins in Mohali and Indore.
As India fine-tunes its T20 template ahead of the World Cup in June, the management aims to maintain the intensity exhibited in the previous victories. Despite successes, opener Rohit Sharma’s individual performance has been subpar, prompting a desire for a substantial innings in the final T20 encounter.
The article also suggests potential changes in the Indian lineup, including game-time for Kuldeep Yadav and Avesh Khan. Meanwhile, Afghanistan, seeking to convert sporadic sparks into match-winning performances, looks to opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz for a significant contribution. A victory for Afghanistan holds significance, boosting confidence for upcoming fixtures against Sri Lanka and Ireland.
