Following an exciting commencement of Group A play in the 2025 Champions Trophy, Group B is set to begin its journey with Afghanistan facing South Africa at the National Stadium in Karachi. This marks Afghanistan's inaugural participation in the 50-over tournament, having secured their spot by finishing sixth in the league stage of the 2023 ODI World Cup.

Afghanistan enters this match on the heels of a 2-0 series victory over Zimbabwe in December of the previous year, which followed a 2-1 series win against Bangladesh. Conversely, South Africa comes into this encounter after suffering defeats in both matches of a recent tri-series that included Pakistan and New Zealand, as well as a 0-3 loss to the team led by Mohammad Rizwan at home last December.

Historically, the two teams have clashed five times in ODI cricket, with South Africa holding a slight edge in the rivalry at 3-2. Notably, two of South Africa's losses occurred during a three-match series in the UAE last September.

Squads:

Afghanistan: Rahmanullah Gurbaz(w), Ibrahim Zadran, Sediqullah Atal, Rahmat Shah, Hashmatullah Shahidi(c), Azmatullah Omarzai, Gulbadin Naib, Mohammad Nabi, Rashid Khan, Fazalhaq Farooqi, Noor Ahmad, Fareed Ahmad Malik, Ikram Alikhil, Naveed Zadran, Nangeyalia Kharote
