The Afghanistan cricket team toured Qatar in November 2025 to play the Qatar cricket team. [1] [2] The tour consisted of three Twenty20 (T20) matches, the last of which played with official Twenty20 International (T20I) status. [3] All the matches were played at West End Park International Cricket Stadium at Doha. [4] These matches were played to prepare Afghanistan for the 2025 Asia Cup Rising Stars held at the same venue. [5]
The series marked Qatar's first-ever matches against a full member team. [6] It also marked Afghanistan's first T20I match in Qatar, while they have played against Netherlands at the same venue in an ODI series in 2022. [7]
The first match of the series had a delayed start due to "technical problem". Initially, there was confusion regarding the T20I status of these matches with contradicting reports from the boards; it was confirmed that only the final match of the series would have T20I status. [8] [9]
