Afghanistan will take confidence from their 2023 ODI World Cup win over England when both teams meet once again in a crucial Group B fixture of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 on Wednesday (February 26).
Both Afghanistan and England are yet to open their account in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. While England were undone by a Josh Inglis hundred despite posting 350-plus runs on board, debutants Afghanistan were undone by South Africa. A loss for any team would mean their pathway to the semifinal is closed for this time.
