Afghanistan vs Zimbabwe 1st T20I Live Telecast Channel in India and Afghanistan: When and where to watch AFG vs ZIM Abu Dhabi T20I?

Afghanistan vs Zimbabwe 1st T20I Live Telecast Channel: The SportsRush presents before you the timing and live streaming details of the first AFG vs ZIM T20I.

The first T20I of the ongoing Zimbabwe’s tour of UAE will be played tomorrow at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi tomorrow. Coming on the back of a riveting two-match Test series, Afghanistan and Zimbabwe would be looking forward to a three-match T20I series.

The two teams will be playing a T20I against each other for the first time since Bangladesh Twenty20 Tri-series 2019. As far as playing in the UAE is concerned, it will be their first match against each other over there.

In a total of nine T20Is so far, Afghanistan have won eight as compared to Zimbabwe’s solitary victory which had come in their last T20I in Chattogram.

As was the case during the recently concluded Test series between the two teams, the three-match T20I series will also not be available on television channels in India.

However, streaming platform Fan Code will be streaming this series at a nominal price. Unlike West Indies and Pakistan’s tour of New Zealand last year, fans no longer have the option of buying a pass only for just the first match.

Fans, who wish to buy a pass for the three T20Is, will have to pay INR 29 on the website or mobile application of FanCode. It is worth mentioning that Fan Code have also launched monthly and annual subscriptions, details of which can be seen on their website and mobile application.

As far as the fans in Afghanistan are concerned, they will be able to watch the Abu Dhabi T20I on their televisions by tuning in to RTA. Fans in UAE and Pakistan will be able to watch the first Test on eCriclife and Geo Super/PTV respectively.

Zimbabwean fans, who will get to see their national team playing a T20I after four months, will be able to see the match on ZBC (Zimbabwe Broadcast Corporation) TV.
