Why has Cricket Scotland decided to stay away from playing bilateral or non-ICC event matches against the Afghanistan cricket team? It is worth mentioning that the Scottish national cricket board has sanctioned its decision only for its men's cricket team, not for its women's national cricket team.
As there are concerns over the girls' and women's future under the Taliban-controlled Afghanistan, the Scottish board will not proactively schedule bilateral series or participate in tri-series involving Afghanistan Men, as they have informed in their official release. But they will keep obeying the ICC fixtures. If, in any ICC event, Scotland is scheduled to face Afghanistan, they will do so as per the ICC fixtures.

They have also noted that there will be no consideration of facing Afghanistan in a bilateral or tri-series arrangement with Afghanistan unless there is a massive upgrade in women's cricket in Afghanistan and in their human rights. The Scottish men's cricket team will not even share the same ground with the Afghans for practice matches as well.
