From our match preview

Toss: Bat first. Despite dew favouring chasers, Afghanistan's spin attack is best utilised when the pitch is at its driest. Setting a total and defending with Rashid, Mujeeb, and Noor Ahmad on a deteriorating surface is their optimal strategy.

What did the toss winner choose in AFG vs CAN?

Canada chose to field first. Our pre-toss call was bat first — the captain went the other way.

How does the toss affect the AFG vs CAN match odds?

Meaningfully. MA Chidambaram Stadium favours batting first (chases succeed only 44% of the time here), so our model shifts the match win probability by about 2 percentage points depending on which side ends up chasing. A pre-toss match price averages both branches, so the toss result itself can create or kill value on the match market.
