The first T20I of Afghanistan’s tour of UAE 2023 will be played at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium tonight. The first match will be followed by two more matches within the next three days at the same venue.

Named Abu Dhabi Friendship Series, a three-match series will resume T20I rivalry between these two teams after six years. Played at the same stadium, the last UAE vs Afghanistan T20I had witnessed the visitors chasing down a 147-run target in the penultimate over.

Afghanistan, in fact, have done exceedingly well in UAE vs Afghanistan head to head record in T20Is. In the six T20Is that they’ve played against each other thus far, Afghanistan have won five matches as compared to UAE’s lone win. It is worth mentioning that UAE have never won a T20I against Afghanistan at home.

In what is going to be only the second bilateral T20I series between these opponents, Afghanistan had whitewashed UAE 3-0 in their inaugural T20I series against them.
