On Tuesday, November 21, the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) officially announced the schedule for the 2024 Afghanistan-India tour, which will take place in January.
Afghanistan is scheduled to tour India for a three-match T20I series in January 2024. The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) confirmed this on November 21.
Apart from the T20 World Cup, ODI World Cup and Asia Cup, this is the first time that India and Afghanistan will face each other in a bilateral series in white-ball cricket.
The first match of the series will be played on January 11 at the PCA Stadium Mohali. The second match is scheduled to take place on January 14 at the Holkar Stadium in Indore. The third and final match will be played on January 17 at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore.
India and Afghanistan will play each other in January for the first time since meeting at the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 in India. In the World Cup clash, the Men In Blue defeated their opponents by eight wickets with 90 balls remaining at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, capitalizing on captain Rohit Sharma's sensational century.
Surprisingly, the upcoming series between Afghanistan and the Men In Blue will be the first time ever that these two teams will face each other in an all-around white ball series. It is noteworthy that Afghanistan and India have competed against each other several times in competitions organized by the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) and the International Cricket Council (ICC), but have not played a multi-match white-ball series.
Talking about India's World Cup campaign, they dominated the entire tournament and had a 10-match winning streak going into the World Cup final. However, their winning streak ended in the summit clash when Rohit Sharma & Co. suffered a heavy defeat against Australia that broke the hearts of billions of cricket fans.
