Afghanistan to Face Bangladesh in UAE for White-Ball Series This October

T20

Afghanistan will lock horns with Bangladesh in a three-match T20I series followed by three ODIs in the United Arab Emirates this October. The series has been confirmed, though the official dates are yet to be announced.

This upcoming contest is essentially a continuation of the bilateral series that was postponed last year. Scheduled between the Asia Cup in September and Bangladesh’s series against West Indies in late October, this clash promises to be an exciting prelude to a busy cricketing calendar.

Matches to be Held in Dubai

According to reports, all matches will be staged at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. The T20I series will take place first, with the ODIs to follow.

A senior official from the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) told Dhaka Post,

T20I Series Duration and Background

The series is expected to be wrapped up within 14 days, starting October 4 and finishing by October 17, 2025.

It is important to note that the two sides were originally set to play two Tests, three ODIs, and three T20Is in July 2024, but the plan was scrapped due to additional commitments.

An insider close to the development added,
