The second T20I between India and Afghanistan of the 2024 tour of Afghanistan will be played at the Holkar Stadium in Indore on Sunday, January 14. The hosts took a 1-0 lead in the three-match series after beating their Asian rivals by 6 wickets in the opening game in Mohali.
Afghanistan have yet to win a T20I match against India and it will be interesting to see if they can pull off a miracle this time. With the return of Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal, the Men in Blue are stronger than their previous XI.

IND vs AFG: Pitch Report
The Holkar Cricket Stadium is known as a batter's paradise. With the boundaries short and the pitches flat, a high-scoring encounter can be expected when the two teams face each other on Sunday. The pacers will get some help but the spinners are likely to get hammered here. Electing to bat first would be a wise choice on this surface.
