Bangladesh will host Afghanistan at Mirpur's Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium from September 25 to October 1 this year. The teams will face each other in a three-ODI series.
Nasimullah Danish, chairman of Afghanistan Cricket Board, said, “This will be the first series between Bangladesh and Afghanistan. We are looking forward to entertaining cricket for the cricket lovers of Bangladesh.
“We are in close discussion with ICC (International Cricket Council) Full Members and successfully completed many tours with them. Series of matches with Full Members prove that, Afghanistan cricket has secured a decent spot in the cricketing world. It’s always good for our team development to test (ourselves) in different conditions, and there’s no better place than Bangladesh to do that.”
On the other hand, Shafiq Stanikzai, CEO of ACB, said, “We are very thankful to Bangladesh Cricket Board for hosting Afghanistan national cricket team and we are committed to play as many international games as possible. We will learn and deliver good cricket for the cricket lovers.”
