AFG vs ENG Pitch and Weather Report: Cloudy Skies Expected in Lahore, Clear Weather Could Lead to a Run-Fest

After a disappointing start to their Champions Trophy campaign with a loss to South Africa, Afghanistan is eager to bounce back with a crucial victory against England.

Both teams will face each other in their second group-stage match on Wednesday, February 26, at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium. Both sides are still searching for their first win of the tournament. This will be a knockout match—whichever team loses will be eliminated from the competition.

Disappointing Start for Afghanistan

In their opening match, Afghanistan struggled to contain South Africa’s batting attack, as the Proteas posted a strong total of 315/6. Wicketkeeper-batsman Ryan Rickelton played a brilliant century to put his team in a commanding position.

In response, Afghanistan’s Rahmat Shah played an impressive knock of 90 runs, but his efforts were not enough to secure a win, as the team was bowled out for 208 runs. Now, Afghanistan aims to put on a better performance against England in this crucial match.
