India and Afghanistan have played only three ODIs against each other. Among the three matches, India came victorious in two matches whereas Afghanistan didn't win any match. The remaining match ended with a tie.

India might play with the same playing XI from the previous match. Shubman Gill might miss the clash against Afghanistan as well as Pakistan as he has not fully recovered from dengue.

KL Rahul and Virat Kohli seem to be in fine touch in white-ball cricket. Afghanistan will fetch their small chances which will help them to register their first win in ODIs against India.

The battle between Naveen Ul Haq and Virat Kohli will be eyed by many as they had a huge banter after the match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL. The battle between ICC's ODI bowling 4th rank holder Rashid Khan and India's run-machine Virat Kohli also awaits.

Squads:

India: Rohit Sharma (c), Hardik Pandya (vc), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Shami, Ishan Kishan, Surya Kumar Yadav.
