Historic Australia-Afghanistan Test Set To Be Postponed Indefinitely

By IANS News September 29, 2021 • 16:26 PM View: 1637

Cricket Tasmania CEO Dominic Baker said on Wednesday that the one-off men's Test match between Australia and Afghanistan will be postponed indefinitely and that a formal announcement on it will come in the next couple of days. He added that Tasmania will be ready to host an Ashes Test if needed.

Earlier this month, Cricket Australia (CA) had said that it would scrap the plans of the Test match in Hobart from November 27 to December 1 if the Taliban government does not allow women to play sports.
