Australia vs Afghanistan: What Captains Said

Hashmatullah Shahidi (AFG Captain): We want to bat first. The wicket looks good now and we are hopeful it will seam and spin in the second innings. We have done well chasing but you also have to look at the opposition and the ground. He is a legend of the game, we were excited to see him and learn him, he had some words for us and we will try to learn from that. We have one change - Fazalhaq is not playiing, Naveen is playing.

Pat Cummins (AUS Captain): Not too much. We would have had a bat but it is fine. Two changes in the team. Steve struggled in the warm ups and he's going to miss out, Cam Green misses out as well, Maxwell and Marsh are in.
