This year has been quite productive for us both domestically and internationally and we have made good achievements: Afghanistan Cricket Board President Mirwais Ashraf.

Speaking about the upcoming tour, Cricket Board Chairman Mirwais Ashraf said that it has been a good year for them both domestically and internationally. He expressed confidence in his team winning the series and said:

“This year has been quite productive for us both nationally and internationally, and we have had good achievements. “We are committed to try hard and add more bilateral cricket to our calendar next year and bring more glory to our nation.”
