Afghanistan Women To Play T20 Match Against Cricket Without Borders XI In January
Cricket Without Borders XI: The Afghanistan women’s cricket team, currently living as refugees in Australia, is set to play a T20 match against the Cricket Without Borders XI in Melbourne on January 30. This will mark the team’s first time reuniting since fleeing Afghanistan after the Taliban takeover, which barred them from playing at home.
The match at Junction Oval coincides with the start of the pink-ball Women’s Ashes Test at the MCG.
"Many people across cricket and the community have come together to provide support for members of the Afghanistan women's team since their relocation to Australia and this match will be a celebration of that work," Cricket Australia chief executive Nick Hockley said in a statement on Friday.
