    "editor1": "<p><strong>AFG vs CAN, Match 39, Cricket Tips<\/strong>:&nbsp;Afghanistan have had chances thrown at them, but poor decision-making and tactics cost them a place in the Super 8 stage. They were to beat South Africa and failed. That has broken their chances, and they have been eliminated. Afghanistan will be in action for the last time in the ICC T20 World Cup 2026.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>They will face Canada on Thursday at MA Chidambaram Stadium at 7 PM IST. Afghanistan will aim to finish the tournament with consecutive tournament wins. Canada have been below par, and they have lost all three games played so far. Yuvraj Samra made history in the previous game, and he scored a century to become the youngest batter to do so.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><meta name=\"generator\" content=\"quillbot-gc\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>AFG vs CAN: Match Details<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Date: <\/strong>February 19, 2026 (Thursday)<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Time: <\/strong>7:00 PM IST<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Venue: <\/strong>MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>AFG vs CAN Live Streaming Details<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p>The live action of the AFG vs CAN will be available on the Star Sports Networks.
