Afghanistan and Bangladesh have become pretty close rivals in all forms of cricket. Not only are they at a very similar level skill development-wise but it also seems both sets of fans hate losing to the other. That means there is always a bit of an edge when the two teams meet and tempers can run hot.
The UAE is common ground for both teams and the conditions will not really favor one over the other. Afghanistan has a an ever-increasing pool of mystery spinners but struggle a bit with their batting consistency. Bangladesh, on the other hand, seems to have found some good batters but its bowling strength remains very poor.
We don't think there is much separating both teams on paper but the recent trend does point towards an Afghan dominance in ODI cricket. Bangladesh has had some promising results in recent months and it will hope to turn things around!
