Summary
No. 8s generally either hit or block, they rarely run brilliantly between the wicket, they struggle with real pace and quality spin, play slog shots or get out in soft ways, and often don't play the best shots for the situation.Afghanistan are a team of No. 8s.Since the last World Cup, Afghanistan have played 64 ODIs against teams of vastly differing skill levels. He averages 38.90 and has four ODI hundreds since the last World Cup; even if they don't come quick, he can bat. They didn't handle the new ball or the short stuff, gifted legspin wickets, had a stupid run-out, there was only one quality ODI partnership, and their highest score was 51.When asked if they had the best spinners in the pre-match conference, Naib praised his bowlers, then added, "but we should be working [on] the batting line-up".
