For Bangladesh: Najmul Hossain Shanto

One of Bangladesh’s top-order batsmen, Najmul Hossain Shanto, is expected to play a crucial role in bolstering the team’s batting. Shanto’s excellent form in 2023, amassing 405 runs in nine ODIs, is a testament to his confidence with the bat. 

He showcased his ability to perform under pressure during Bangladesh’s ODI series against England earlier this year, where he scored a couple of half-centuries. Fans eagerly anticipate Shanto continuing his stellar form and delivering scintillating batting performances in the World Cup.

For Afghanistan: Ibrahim Zadran

Afghanistan’s Ibrahim Zadran offers technical finesse and the ability to rotate the strike effectively. As an anchor in the batting lineup, he provides stability and flexibility, allowing his partners to adopt an aggressive approach when required. Zadran’s contributions with the bat will be vital for Afghanistan’s success in the tournament.
