Afghanistan Cricket Board bank on Rashid Khan’s return to country to host International matches on home soil

ACB keen on hosting matches on home soil, claims Rashid Khan's return and successfully hosting Shpageeza Cricket League is key

The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) is keen to host international matches at home soon. The development comes after Afghanis skipper Rashid Khan made a return to the country to take part in the Shpageeza Cricket League (SCL). With wars and political unrests looming the country, the other teams haven’t been too keen to visit Afghanistan off late.

Afghanistan‘s current home venue is India where the side is expected to play a couple of games. As for Rashid Khan, the ace all-rounder paid a visit to his country earlier this year before the T20 World Cup after a span of 3 years.

ACB ready to host matches in home soil

ACB believes that after hosting the SCL and another tournament prior to it, they can showcase to the World that Afghanistan is ready to host it’s matches.

“Rashid Khan’s participation in domestic cricket reflects several positive changes in Afghanistan. Rashid’s involvement in domestic cricket highlights improvements in security and current peace in Afghanistan,” ACB chief executive Naseeb Khan told Cricbuzz.

“Before the Shpageeza Cricket League, we organized the List A event in Kunduz province, far from Kabul, with the participation of about 20 national players. Successfully hosting the list A and Shpageeza events in a peaceful environment also serves as an invitation for other countries’ cricket teams to visit and play in Afghanistan,” he said.
