The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) have confirmed that Afghanistan will host India for a three-match T20 International series at the Arun Jaitley Cricket Stadium in Delhi from 13 to 17th next month. The series is part of Afghanistan’s Future Tours Program and will be played in India, where Afghanistan has hosted its home fixtures in recent years.

BCCI President, Mithun Manhas said, BCCI remains committed to supporting the growth of cricket in Afghanistan and providing its players with opportunities to compete at the highest level.

BCCI Honorary Secretary, Devajit Saikia said, the BCCI is pleased to support the Afghanistan Cricket Board in hosting this T20 International series in India.

Afghanistan most recently toured India for a three-match ODI series in June this year, while the two sides also played a three-match T20 International series in January 2024.

India hosted Afghanistan for their historic first Test in 2018, and the two teams have since continued to engage regularly across formats.
