The India vs Afghanistan series is set to be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, New Delhi. Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) sought the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to organise it, and they were given the green signal to host the Men in Blue in New Delhi. Now, ahead of the first match, there is uncertainty surrounding it.
This India vs Afghanistan series is more of a preparatory match ahead of the forthcoming Asian Games 2026. Both teams would want to play a good brand of cricket ahead of the multi-national event in which both of them are participating, and they were finalists in the last edition of the tournament. They would want to gain momentum ahead of the competition.
