The Bangladesh vs Afghanistan Test match will begin in Dhaka on the morning of June 14. It is the first Test between the two Asian teams since 2019. Afghanistan will be without the services of their star all-rounder Rashid Khan in this one-off Test match.
Bangladesh have performed well in home matches. Earlier this year, they defeated Ireland by seven wickets in a home Test. The Litton Das-led outfit will aim to continue their winning momentum when they take on Hashmatullah Shahidi's Afghanistan team.
