Pitch Report
As seen in previous games, the pitch is on the slower side with another relatively low-scoring fixture expected in Doha. The batters will look to go on the attack in the first few overs, with run-scoring being a touch easier against the new ball. As the match progresses, the spinners will come into play given the turn on offer. Both teams will ideally look to bat first, with 220 being a good total at the venue.
Today’s AFG vs NED Dream11 match top picks
Wicketkeeper
Rahmanullah Gurbaz: Rahmanullah Gurbaz was the star of the show with the bat in the previous ODI, scoring a brilliant hundred at the top of the order. He is one of the most explosive batters in world cricket and given the form that he is in, Gurbaz is a must-have in your AFG vs NED Dream11 fantasy team.
Batter
Colin Ackermann: Colin Ackermann hasn't fired with the bat for the Dutch in this series, but he remains their best bet with the bat. The batting all-rounder is also capable of holding his own with the ball, if required to, making him a fine addition to your AFG vs NED Dream11 fantasy team.
All-rounder
Pieter Seelaar: Pieter Seelaar has been in decent form this series despite not being able to get his side over the line. While Seelaar remains key in the middle order, the Dutch captain's prowess with the ball should have a major say in the outcome of the game given the slowness of the track, making him one to watch out for in this game.
Bowler
Rashid Khan: Rashid Khan is one of the best bowlers in the world, capable of bamboozling any opponent with his variations. The leggie has already picked up four wickets in two matches this series, with the Dutch batters unable to negotiate with him comfortably. With the star leggie likely to be Afghanistan's go-to bowler in the middle overs, he should pick up a wicket or two in this game.
