Zimbabwe and Afghanistan have agreed to play five ODIs and two T20Is against each other in Sharjah in February 2018. Afghanistan were in talks to play their maiden Test against Zimbabwe around the same time as well. The original plan was that they would stop over in Sharjah, play each other, and then Zimbabwe would travel Bangladesh for an ODI tri-series in January-February. “We are still discussing the proposed Test and looking at playing it after the ICC Cricket World Cup Qualifier,” a ZC official said. With Zimbabwe suffering a cash crunch, they may also prefer to play their Test matches away from home.
