Afghanistan's T20 World Cup 2026 Squad: The Good, The Bad, The Izzles

Yo, Afghanistan just rolled out their 15-member squad for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka. They kick things off against New Zealand on February 8 in Chennai, where spin's the name of the game. With Rashid Khan and Mujeeb Ur Rahman leading the spin brigade, they gotta tighten up that batting if they wanna shine, ya feel me?

Quick rundown

Rashid Khan still bossing Afghanistan with the spin-ometer on high.
Gulbadin Naib and Mujeeb Ur Rahman return—team gains both bite and swagger.
Group D looks spicy for spin lovers; Chennai turns are tailor-made for Afghan spinners.
Batting depth remains a concern; need longer innings under pressure.
Past upsets against Australia/NZ hint at more fairy-tale runs if they stay cool.
