Afghanistan National Cricket Team vs Bangladesh National Cricket Team Head-to-Head, Playing XI, Players List, Match Prediction | AFG vs BAN 3rd ODI 2025
Afghanistan and Bangladesh are set to play the third and last ODI match of this series at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi, UAE, and the match will be played on October 14, 2025. The Afghanistan National Cricket Team has been playing exceptional cricket in the past few years, whereas Bangladesh has been struggling in white ball cricket, except for the Asia Cup 2025.
The Afghanistan National Cricket Team will be looking to win this match with a dominating performance under the leadership of Hasmatullah Shahidi. Afghanistan has done a phenomenal job in the past, but both have played balanced games against each other, so anyone who performs is going to win this match.
However, the Bangladesh National Cricket Team is heavily dependent on a few players, and their form is also a concern. However, they played good cricket in the Asia Cup 2025 last month. Mehidy Hasan Miraz & Towhid Hridoy have to lead the team from the front and give a match-winning performance, but they need support from other team players as well.

Afghanistan vs Bangladesh Match Prediction:
If we look at the team strength, current form and head-to-head record, Afghanistan is the clear favourite in the third ODI match against Bangladesh. Afghanistan’s top order is led by Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran, who can give an explosive start to the team, whereas Sediqullah Atah gives stability and power in the middle-order.
Mohammad Nabi's all-around skills add extra value; this makes Afghanistan a perfect and balanced squad for this series. On the other hand, Bangladesh will heavily depend on Tawhid Hridoy. If he stood for long, then Bangladesh could challenge Afghanistan.
