Tue Sep 10 23:20:13 UTC 2024: ## Afghanistan Favourites to Upset New Zealand in One-Off Test

Despite their inexperience, Afghanistan are favoured to pull off an upset against New Zealand in the upcoming one-off Test match in Greater Noida, India. The sub-continent conditions are expected to favour the hosts, giving them a crucial edge over the Kiwis.

However, Afghanistan faces a setback with the absence of star spinner Rashid Khan, who is recovering from recent back surgery. The participation of Ibrahim Zadran, who sustained an ankle injury, also remains uncertain.

Meanwhile, New Zealand are faced with a selection dilemma, needing to choose between Will Young and Devon Conway to partner Tom Latham at the top of the order. Michael Bracewell is expected to make his return to the team.

The match will begin on **Monday, September 9th at 10:00 AM IST** at the Greater Noida Sports Complex Ground. The toss will take place at 9:30 AM IST.

Fans in India can watch the match live on Eurosport, while live streaming will be available on Fancode.
