Afghanistan vs Pakistan Toss Live T20 World Cup, AFG vs PAK Injury Updates: This will be the first time both teams will square off in a T20 World Cup while their sole T20I match ended as a victory in Pak's favour.
Afghanistan captain Mohammad Nabi opted to bat first after winning the toss against Babar Azam-led Pakistan in their Super 12 encounter of T20 World Cup in Dubai on Friday.
