Afghanistan will be making their first-ever appearance in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The Hashmatullah Shahidi-led side are placed in Group B alongside Australia, England, and South Africa in the eight-nation tournament, which will be played from 19th February to 9th March.
The major reason behind the success of Afghanistan has been their spinners. The likes of Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad, Allah Ghazanfar, and Mohammad Nabi have played a massive role for the team and no doubt will be holding the key in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 as well.
They will make the opposition surrender even if there is slight help for a spin from the pitch - Aakash Chopra on Afghanistan
"What are Afghanistan's strengths? Firstly, the best spin attack of the tournament. It's not that we (India) are not taking spin. We have also kept four spinners, which includes three fingers and Kuldeep Yadav, in our provisional squad. However, I am saying ours is not the best. Theirs is the best.
They have a lot of all-rounders - Aakash Chopra is in awe of Afghanistan's squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025
Aakash Chopra also was in awe of the number of all-rounders Afghanistan have in the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. He mentioned that even though people call them bits and pieces players, they are proper all-rounders, who contribute equally with bat and ball. He added:
Afghanistan will open their campaign in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 against South Africa on Friday (21st February).
