AFG vs AUS Dream11 Prediction ICC CT2025: Afghanistan and Australia will face off in Match 10 of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 on Friday, February 28, at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore.
This game is almost like a quarter-final because the winner will secure a semi-final spot.
- Australia has three points from two matches. They beat England, but their game against South Africa was washed out.
- Afghanistan lost their first game to South Africa but made a strong comeback by defeating England.
Even if Australia loses, they might still qualify if England beats South Africa by a huge margin, which seems unlikely based on current form.
Afghanistan vs Australia – Head-to-Head in ODIs
- Total Matches: 4
- Australia Wins: 4
- Afghanistan Wins: 0
Australia has dominated Afghanistan in ODIs, winning all four encounters so far.

Pitch Report – Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore
The pitch at Gaddafi Stadium is great for batting, and the short boundaries make it even better for big scores.
- The first two matches at this venue were high-scoring.
- Australia chased 352 against England here.
- England almost chased 326 against Afghanistan, falling short by just 8 runs.
Fast bowlers might struggle, but cutters and slower deliveries could be effective.
Dream11 Captaincy Pick – Travis Head
- Travis Head is a top captaincy option for this match.
- He failed against England, but with Australia’s semi-final hopes at stake, he could step up.
- His ODI record in Lahore is impressive:
- 101 & 89 in two matches
- Two low scores in the other two
If Head gets going, he can win the match on his own.
Players to Watch Out For
1️⃣ Travis Head – Australia’s aggressive opener, capable of big knocks.
2️⃣ Azmatullah Omarzai – A key all-rounder who can contribute with both bat and ball.
3️⃣ Steve Smith – Australia’s experienced leader, steady in pressure situations.
