The 3rd and Final T20I Match will be played on the 11th of November, 2025.

It is the first time that Qatar are hosting a full member nation for a bilateral series.

All of the games in the Tour will be played at the West End Park International Cricket Stadium, Doha.

Afghanistan will certainly start as favorites in the Tour and they are expected to simply dominate Qatar in the upcoming matches.

Qatar are led by Mohammed Rizlan. They have named their best squad including players like Imal Liyanage, Zubair Ali, Daniel Archer, Saqlain Arshad and Mirza Mohammed Baig.

Although Qatar would not start as favorites to win a single game but they can certainly pack a punch, especially in their home conditions.

1. Qatar – Mirza Mohammed Baig, Zubair Ali, Imal Liyanage, Saqlain Arshad

2. Afghanistan – TBA
