The UAE will host Afghanistan for a T20I series from December 29. Here is where you can watch the UAE vs AFG T20Is live, including the TV channels and live streaming information.

The UAE are hosting Afghanistan for two 50-over matches – these will not have ODI status – and three T20Is. Afghanistan have won both tour matches at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.

In the first, on December 25, Afghanistan posted 214 and bowled out the UAE Falcons for 105 as Yamin Ahmadzai claimed 5-22. In the second, Afghanistan made 249-7, and the UAE Falcons responded with only 154.

The two teams will now play three T20Is, on December 29, December 31, and January 2, at the same venue. All matches will begin at 3 PM local time.

The two teams have met nine times so far – including the last seven in the UAE – between July 2015 and February 2023. Afghanistan hold a 7-2 lead over the UAE. including a 2-1 win in Abu Dhabi earlier this year.

Ahead of their UAE tour, the Afghanistan Cricket Board denied NOCs to Naveen-ul-Haq, Fazalhaq Farooqi, and Mujeeb Ur Rahman, all of whom are their regular internationals, from playing in the franchise-based T20 leagues around the world. They have not selected any of them for the tour of the UAE either.

Between October and November, Afghanistan had an excellent run at the 2023 World Cup in India, albeit in another format: they beat England, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and the Netherlands.

The UAE Under-19s, on the other hand, stunned Sri Lanka and, in the semi-final, Pakistan, to qualify for the final of the 2023 Under-19 Asia Cup earlier this month.
