T20 World Cup- Ish Sodhi available for Afghanistan clash: New Zealand spinner Ish Sodhi is available for the clash against Afghanistan in the T20 World Cup on Sunday.

New Zealand and Afghanistan will lock horns with each other on Sunday in Group 2 of the Super 12 stage. “Ish Sodhi is available for tomorrow’s final pool game against Afghanistan.

Meanwhile, Ish Sodhi said the New Zealand batters have taken it into consideration ahead of Afghanistan.

“Absolutely. Spearheaded by Rashid Khan obviously Mujeeb Ur Rahman is phenomenal as well. But Mohammad Nabi is a very cagey offspinner and bowls well through the powerplay too. That’s definitely where their threat lies with their bowling attack,” said Ish Sodhi as per ICC in a virtual press conference.
