The "Men in Blue" will begin their Super 8 campaign against the "Afghans" at Kensington Oval in Barbados. The match will be in action at 8.00 PM

In eight T20I meetings, Team India has a solid lead by seven wins over Afghanistan. One match between sides ended with no result

The Rohit Sharma-led India is still unbeaten in the tournament and will look to continue their winning momentum against Afghanistan

Rashid Khan-led side has also enjoyed the taste of success in the group stage as they won three matches out of four games

Playing on the West Indies track might provide an opportunity to star Indian spinner Kuldeep Yadav. Mohammed Siraj would likely make way if the Indian think tank plays Kuldeep in today's playing XI

Earlier, Afghanistan's bowling attack had put on an impressive show in the group stage. Their lineup consists of the likes of world-class spinner Rashid Khan, Noor Ahmad and Naveen Ul Haq

The spectators will keep tabs on Indian stalwart Virat Kohli. The veteran has struggled to accumulate runs in the group stage after having a successful run in the IPL 2024

India Squad: Rohit Sharma(c), Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant(w), Suryakumar Yadav, Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Siraj, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Kuldeep Yadav, Sanju Samson, Yuzvendra Chahal

Afghanistan Squad: Rahmanullah Gurbaz(w), Ibrahim Zadran, Gulbadin Naib, Azmatullah Omarzai, Najibullah Zadran, Mohammad Nabi, Karim Janat, Rashid Khan(c), Noor Ahmad, Naveen-ul-Haq, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Fareed Ahmad Malik, Mohammad Ishaq, Nangeyalia Kharote, Hazratullah Zazai
