T20 World Cup: Schedule | Points table
Afghanistan arrive after a campaign defined by narrow margins and missed chances. Their most dramatic moment came in a double Super Over contest against South Africa, but that effort was not enough to keep them in contention. Attention now turns to how their batting order functions as a unit and whether the bowling group can produce sustained pressure rather than isolated spells. The match also comes at a time when questions about experience and transition are part of the wider conversation around squad balance.
Canada enter with momentum from individual achievements that brought attention to their campaign. A record-setting century by a teenage opener and strong partnerships at the top have shown the side’s batting potential. However, inconsistency with the ball has limited their ability to control matches. Their final outing offers another opportunity to deliver a more complete performance across both innings.
Beyond the result, this game provides a platform to assess combinations, test tactical approaches, and measure progress made during the tournament. For players, it is also a chance to influence future selection decisions. For supporters, it is a final opportunity to watch two teams that have produced notable moments despite early exits.
