Little separates these two on current form, so expect a tight, momentum-driven battle.
This XI leans 7-4 towards AF, which is a deliberate bet rather than a hedge — George Dockrell takes the armband, so if AF are rolled over cheaply your score goes with them. If you want to de-risk it, swap one AF middle-order batter for the equivalent slot on the other side before the toss.
