IND vs AFG 2nd T20I FREE LIVE in India: India have taken a 1-0 lead in the series after defeating Afghanistan by seven wickets in the opening T20I. India chased down Afghanistan’s 156-run target with 38 balls to spare, with Abhishek Sharma scoring 82 off 32 balls. Afghanistan now need a victory in Delhi to keep the three-match series alive.
India will look to seal the series with another strong performance. Jasprit Bumrah impressed on his return in the first T20I, while Arshdeep Singh claimed three wickets. However, Varun Chakravarthy has been ruled out of the remaining two matches due to injury, potentially opening the door for Ravi Bishnoi.
The opening combination will again be one of India’s major talking points. Abhishek Sharma, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Sanju Samson are competing for the two opening positions, while captain Shreyas Iyer will look to guide India towards another series victory. Recent reports have also suggested that Vaibhav could come into the XI, while Ravi Bishnoi could replace the injured Varun.
Afghanistan, meanwhile, will need a much-improved batting performance after being restricted to 156 in the first match. Azmatullah Omarzai scored 64, while Mohammad Nabi made 33, but the visitors could not prevent India from completing a comfortable chase. Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Ibrahim Zadran, Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi will be crucial to Afghanistan’s hopes in the second T20I.
