Sharjah, August 29, 2025 — The much-anticipated UAE T20I Tri-Nation Series begins today at the historic Sharjah Cricket Stadium, featuring Pakistan, Afghanistan, and the United Arab Emirates in what is being seen as a crucial tune-up ahead of the Asia Cup.
The series will run from August 29 to September 7, with all matches staged in Sharjah. Each team will play the others twice in a round-robin format, followed by a final between the top two sides.
This tri-series serves as more than just a competition. With the Asia Cup starting on September 9, it provides all three sides an opportunity to test combinations, assess form, and adapt strategies under pressure.
Pakistan will be looking to regain momentum after a tough series loss to India earlier this month. Afghanistan, meanwhile, continues to rise as a force in T20 cricket and will use this as a chance to sharpen skills before the Asia Cup. For hosts UAE, the series is an opportunity to challenge higher-ranked sides and gain invaluable experience.
With high stakes and passionate fan bases, the Sharjah Tri-Series promises to deliver exciting cricket and vital insights ahead of the continental showdown.
