Afghanistan vs Australia Head to Head Record in ODIs | ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 Match 4

Afghanistan vs Australia Head to Head Record in ODIs: The SportsRush present before you the Head to Head record for AFG vs AUS.

The fourth match of the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup 2019 will be played between Afghanistan and Australia at Bristol tomorrow. In what is going to be the tournament opener for both the teams, both Afghanistan and Australia would be looking to commence their journey on a winning note.

Despite losing against England in their second warm-up match, Afghanistan would be taking motivation from their victory against Pakistan in their first match. Having it in them to defeat any opposition on their day, Afghans can’t be taken lightly in this lightly.

On the other hand, Australia won both their warm-up matches and would be looking to continue the momentum. The latest update on David Warner’s fitness will further bolster their chances of doing the same.
