Probable Top Performers from IND vs AFG

Probable Best Batter: Shivam Dube

Indian all-rounder Shivam Dube could be the best batter in the second T20I against Afghanistan. Dube was sensational for the Men in Blue in the first game, scoring 60* runs in 30 deliveries. Dube’s performance could once again be key for the hosts.

Probable Best Bowler: Axar Patel

Axar Patel will look to put in yet another inspirational performance in the upcoming game against Afghanistan. Taking two wickets in the first T20I, Axar’s spell was crucial in limiting the visitors to a reasonable total, and a similar performance could be expected from him in the upcoming game.
