Afghanistan is set to take on Ireland in the first ODI of the three-match series on March 7, 2024 at Sharjah Cricket Stadium in Sharjah.

The 50-overs series is followed by the one-off Test both the teams played last week in Abu Dhabi. The two sides have played bilateral ODI series in UAE twice, in which both the nations have won once each.

In the upcoming series, Afghanistan will be led by Hashmatullah Shahidi under whom they finished at number in the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup in India.
