New DelhiThe Afghanistan women’s cricket team, formed with refugees living in Australia, will return to the field after 2021 and will play a T20 match against ‘Cricket Widow Borders’ playing XI in Australia on Thursday. In Men’s cricket, Australia does not play bilateral matches with Afghanistan, but he is facing the ICC event.
After the Taliban was ruling, this team has been formed by choosing from the people of Afghanistan who came here. After coming to Australia, these people are living in Canberra and Melbourne. The match will be played between Australia and England before the first day of the women’s Ashes Test.
Cricket Australia Chief Executive Nick Hawkly said in a press conference, “This is the first step. It will be a very exciting day and I hope that this match will be possible every year and this team will also get a chance to play internationally.
Nahida Sapan, one of Afghan cricketers, described the moment as “historic”, but wished more support from the community. He said, “This is very special for us, especially for Afghan women. Because this is a very historical moment for all Afghan women. We have high expectations from this match, because this match can open education, sports and future doors for Afghan women.
