After a promising performance against Virat Kohli-led India in their last clash, Afghanistan will look to replicate a similar kind of performance and seal their first victory of the 2019 International Cricket Council (ICC) when they lock horns with Bangladesh at the Rose Bowl Cricket Stadium in Hampshire on Monday.

On Saturday, the Gulbadin Naib-led side came up with a much-improved performance and gave India a run for their money by shining with both bat and ball before eventually slumping to an 11-run defeat, courtesy Mohammad Shami's last over hat-trick in a nail-biting thriller.  

Gulbadin and Mohammad Nabi scalped two wickets each while Aftab Alam, Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Rashid Khan and Rahmat Shah all contributed with one wicket to restrict the famed Indian batting line-up to a paltry score of 224 for eight. 

In reply, Mohammad Nabi frustrated India with his 55-ball 52 before Shami pulled back a match-winning hat-trick in the last over to help the Men in Blue bundle Afghanistan out for 213 in 49.5 overs.

Heading into Monday's clash, Afghanistan--who are out of the 2019 World Cup after losing all of their first five matches--will look to capitalise on their performance against India and eye to seal their first victory of the tournament. 

Bangladesh, on the other hand, suffered a 48-run defeat at the hands of defending champions Australia in their last clash. 

The Mashrafe Mortaza-led side, who are currently placed at the sixth spot with two wins from six matches, will look to keep their semi-final hopes alive when they take on Afghanistan in a do-or-die World Cup encounter.

The two squads are as follows:

Afghanistan: Gulbadin Naib (c), Noor Ali Zadran, Hazratullah Zazai, Rahmat Shah (wk), Asghar Afghan, Hashmatullah Shahidi, Najibullah Zadran, Samiullah Shinwari, Mohammad Nabi, Rashid Khan, Dawlat Zadran, Aftab Alam, Hamid Hassan, Mujeeb ur Rahman, Ikram Ali Khil

Bangladesh:  Mashrafe Mortaza (c), Abu Jayed, Liton Das (wk), Mahmudullah, Mehidy Hasan, Mohammad Mithun (wk), Mohammad Saifuddin, Mosaddek Hossain, Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), Mustafizur Rahman, Rubel Hossain, Sabbir Rahman, Shakib Al Hasan, Soumya Sarkar, Tamim Iqbal
