Afghanistan vs Bangladesh Series 2025: Full Schedule, Squads & Venues

Afghanistan are all set to take on Bangladesh in a white-ball series starting on October 2. After the Asia Cup 2025, both teams will play against each other in three-match T20I and ODI series. Afghanistan's performance in the Asia Cup was quite disappointing, as they crashed out of the first round of the tournament.

Moreover, with the T20 World Cup 2026 coming up, the players will get more time and match practice to prepare themselves. It will be interesting to watch how the Afghanistan players get back into the groove after a dismal Asia Cup campaign. Meanwhile, Bangladesh are in the Super Four and have the chance to reach the final as well. They defeated Afghanistan in their recent meeting during the Asia Cup and will be high on confidence.
