India: Rohit Sharma (c), Ishan Kishan, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul (wk), Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin/Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj.
Afghanistan: Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Ibrahim Zadran, Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi (c), Najibullah Zadran, Mohammad Nabi, Azmatullah Omarzai, Rashid Khan, Mujeeb ur Rahman, Naveen-ul-Haq, Fazalhaq Farooqi.

Virat Kohli: Virat Kohli is among the most popular captaincy choices in this game. He is in tremendous form and always scores runs in this format. Kohli is a safe option.
Hardik Pandya: Hardik Pandya will contribute to all the departments. He can score useful runs while batting at No. 6 and scalp a few crucial wickets with the ball. Hardik is a valuable captain.
Mohammad Nabi: Mohammad Nabi always performs against India with both bat and ball. Nabi is a talented batter who can add useful runs, and the track in Delhi might suit his bowling style as well. Hence, he is a good captaincy choice.
Ishan Kishan: Ishan Kishan has surprisingly been picked up by less than 27% of users as of now, making him a good differential pick. He will open the innings, and if the pitch is similar to the last game in Delhi, Kishan can cause serious damage to the Afghanistan bowling unit. He needs to be cautious against Mujeeb Ur Rahman early on.
Mujeeb Ur Rahman: Mujeeb Ur Rahman has been selected by less than 14% of users as of now. He will bowl in the powerplay and can dismiss the big fishes of the Indian team who are slightly vulnerable to the spinners.
Hasmatullah Shahidi: Hashmatullah Shahidi hasn’t done anything significant of late and can be avoided for this encounter.
If IND bat first:
Complete the team with three among Ishan Kishan, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, Shreyas Iyer and Mujeeb Ur Rahman.
If AFG bat first:
Complete the team with three among Rohit Sharma, Ibrahim Zadran, Azmatullah Omarzai and Fazalhaq Farooqi.
If IND bat first:
Complete the team with three among Ishan Kishan, Shreyas Iyer, Kuldeep Yadav and Mujeeb Ur Rahman.
If AFG bat first:
Complete the team with three among Ibrahim Zadran, Najibullah Zadran, Azmatullah Omarzai and Mohammed Siraj.
Afghanistan will put on a solid fight and make things difficult for India. However, the Men in Blue are formidable enough to overcome the obstacles and win the game.
