We want to achieve it for Afghanistan. You see the batsmen, bowlers are all in good form.&quot;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Leg-spinner Rashid Khan, the architect of Afghanistan&#39;s 3-0 whitewash of Bangladesh, might well be the frontman in Bengaluru and he is looking forward to the big occasion.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Full credit to my fitness -- if you&#39;re fit, you can deliver in any department; it doesn&#39;t matter whether I&#39;m playing in league cricket or the national team, I just want to enjoy,&quot; he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p>IANS<\/p>\r\n",
