The Afghanistan Cricket Board and the Board of Control for Cricket in India have confirmed the three-match series.
Despite India providing the venue, Afghanistan will officially serve as the host nation. The arrangement reflects the long-running cooperation between the two cricket boards in supporting Afghanistan’s international cricket programme.
The series will also provide Afghanistan with another opportunity to face one of the leading teams in world cricket in bilateral competition.
