Pakistan and Afghanistan pen UAE T20 tri-series before Asia Cup

In order to prepare for the T20 World Cup next year, the United Arab Emirates will host a Twenty20 tri-series featuring Afghanistan and Pakistan later this month.

Starting August 29th, Sharjah will host all seven of the tri-series games. The top two teams must compete against each other twice to reach the final.

India and Sri Lanka have already secured direct admission to the T20 World Cup, which will be held jointly. In addition to qualifying, UAE will need to play in Oman for the Asia-East Asia and Pacific qualifiers.

Afghanistan, which finished seventh overall in the last T20 World Cup, hasn’t played a T20 since a bilateral series against Zimbabwe late last year. In the United States, Pakistan is currently playing a T20 series against the West Indies.
