Afghanistan have named their squad for the upcoming three-match ODI series and one-off Test series against India. Hashmatullah Shahidi has been named as the captain of both sides.
Afghanistan are all set to tour India in June after the end of the ongoing IPL season, which concludes with the final scheduled to be played on the 31st of May. The one-off Test scheduled between the two nations is not part of the WTC campaign, while the one-day series will mark the beginning of the preparations for the ICC ODI World Cup 2027.
