Afghanistan (AFG) will take on Bangladesh (BAN) in the final fixture of the three-match series as the third ODI gets underway on Tuesday, October 14, at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi.
Having already taken an unassailable 2–0 lead, Afghanistan have convincingly sealed the series and will now be eyeing a clean sweep to carry their momentum into the next assignment. The Rashid Khan-led side has been in brilliant form, and it will be interesting to see if they make any changes for Tuesday, since the game is as good as any dead rubber for them.
Meanwhile, Bangladesh, who earlier dominated the T20I series with a whitewash, have struggled to replicate that success in the 50-over phase of the tour. They will look to bounce back with a win in the final ODI to end the tour on a positive note. A consolation win would certainly boost their confidence as they bid to prepare for the 2027 ODI World Cup.

Pitch Report
The pitch at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium has shown contrasting behaviour so far, favouring the batters in the first match, while offering good assistance to the bowlers in the second. A similar surface can be expected for the final ODI, with bowlers likely to find some support, while batters who spend time at the crease should still be able to score runs.

Probable Best Performers from AFG vs BAN
Probable Best Batter: Ibrahim Zadran

Afghanistan opener Ibrahim Zadran could be the key batter in this clash. He has been in good form, scoring 118 runs in two matches, and his contributions at the top of the order have been crucial in setting the tone for Afghanistan’s innings. Moreover, he has been the key batter, since Rahmanullah Gurbaz seems to have lost the touch. Zadran scoring on Tuesday could be a deciding factor in the upcoming contest.
Probable Best Bowler: Rashid Khan

Afghanistan star spinner Rashid Khan could be the key bowler in this clash. He has taken eight wickets in the ODI series, including a five-wicket haul in the second ODI, where he completely dominated the Bangladesh batting lineup. His 10 overs will be crucial and could prove decisive if the Afghans aim to seal a 3–0 series whitewash.
