Australia-Afghanistan Australia set to host Afghanistan for one-off Test series next year
Kabul: Australia will host Afghanistan for a solitary Test match, which was postponed earlier, in November 2021 as per the agreement between Afghanistan Cricket Board and Cricket Australia.
The Test was originally scheduled to be held in November 2020, the ACB website said in a statement.
However, due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, Cricket Australia called-off the Test and decided to hold it at a later date.
Afghanistan obtained Test status in 2017 and has played four Test matches so far, winning two of them against Ireland and Bangladesh.
