Good evening and welcome to the clash between Afghanistan and Bangladesh, even if it's an inconsequential clash given that both teams have qualified for the Super Four.
However, If cricket's quality is measured in terms of passion, you aren't likely to get a better clash. After the damp squib that all the build-up to Indo-Pak resulted in yesterday, here are two sides, yearning for some equality in the footage.
Brace up, it's going to be a spin-fest, an overdose that promises to have every form of it that exists on display. But today's is more about resting, rotating, benching, experimenting .. and yes, the pride to take to tomorrow after pulling this off.
Stay tuned for the toss in a bit.
