However, despite the statistics, the teams here prefer to chase because of the small ground. In the Super 4 match played between Sri Lanka and Afghanistan, the hosts won the toss and decided to bowl first. In such a situation, whichever team wins the toss in the Pakistan-Afghanistan match can decide to bowl first.
