00:00 What makes Afghanistan dangerous in an ODI, sir?

00:04 Well, you know, we are more dangerous when we, as a team, take a little bit of responsibility with the bat.

00:13 And especially in T20, when you have a good total on the board, you always, as a bowling unit, we are very good.

00:19 We have those best spinners around the world, you know, that are playing all around the world and well known.

00:26 But the bowling unit is very good, but it's just about to handle a little bit of pressure with the batting.

00:32 And we take the responsibility and we take the game a little bit deep.

00:36 That's something that most of the time that happened with us as a team that we lost it, where we haven't performed in both departments.

00:43 But I think, you know, those two games against India, we scored.

00:48 That's why the game went to the last bowl and went very close.

00:52 And bowling unit already stood up and they performed, but that will be the area we think about it for the World Cup in Asia Cup.
