This section covers Afghanistan’s T20I tour of India in September 2026, a series played in Delhi between two of the most competitive T20 sides in Asia.
India took the lead with a 7 wicket win in the first T20I, but Afghanistan never travel to India as easy opponents. Their spin attack is one of the best in the world, and on slower surfaces they can trouble any batting order. That contest between India’s batters and Afghanistan’s spinners is the thread running through our coverage.
Here you will find our series preview with the pitch report, weather and fantasy tips, the predicted Afghanistan playing 11, previews for each match and result reports that explain how each game was won.
We also track the records and milestones that came up during the series, and what the results mean for both teams as they plan for the next ICC event.
