    "editor1": "<p><strong>IND vs AFG Quarter-final, Cricket Tips:&nbsp;<\/strong>Team India will be in action in the ongoing Asian Games 2026 for the first time. Shreyas Iyer and co. made a direct entry into the quarterfinal after winning the gold in the last edition. They will face Afghanistan in this knockout game on Monday in Nisshin.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>This contest has a scheduled start of 10:30 AM IST at Korogi Sports Club. India have a full-strength side, and they recently beat Afghanistan&#39;s full-strength side 3-0 a couple of weeks back. The current Afghan team lost their last group game to Nepal and are facing India, which will be a massive challenge for them. Can they produce something special on the day?<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>IND vs AFG: Match Details<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Date<\/strong>: September 28, 2026 (Monday)<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Time<\/strong>: 10:30 AM IST<\/li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Venue<\/strong>: Korogi Sports Park, Nisshin<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>IND vs AFG: Live Streaming Details<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p>The live action of the IND vs AFG clash will be available on the Sony Sports Networks in India.

The wicket has turn and grip for the bowlers, and spinners are playing a key role here. It is tough ground to bat, and the conditions will be better to bat in the first innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h4><strong>IND vs AFG: Possible XIs<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>India<\/strong>: Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson (wk), Shreyas Iyer (c), Ishan Kishan, Tilak Varma, Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Axar Patel, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Afghanistan<\/strong>: Md.

For Afghanistan, Karim Janat can play spin well, and his role will be important here.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Probable Best Bowler<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Axar Patel and N Kharoti will be two bowlers who will get good help from the wicket and are very good exponent of such wickets.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Today Match Prediction:<\/strong> India have an upper hand over Afghanistan, and the experience and form are in their favor. Hence, we predict India to win this contest.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>IND vs AFG Quarter final, Today Match IND vs AFG, IND vs AFG Prediction, IND vs AFG Predicted XIs, Injury Update for India vs Afghanistan Match<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<h5><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-special\">Special Cricket Stories<\/a><\/h5><p><strong>Disclaimer<\/strong>: The prediction or cricket tips are purely based on the understanding and research of the writer.
