- The Afghanistan cricket team were scheduled to tour Pakistan in September 2021 to play three One Day International (ODI) matches. The ODI series would have formed part of the inaugural 2020–23 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League. Originally the matches were scheduled to take place in the United Arab Emirates. However, due to the rescheduled matches of the 2021 Indian Premier League (IPL) taking place in the UAE, the series was moved to Sri Lanka in July 2021. In August 2021, the series was moved again, this time to Pakistan, as a result of the Taliban offensive in Afghanistan and an increase of COVID-19 cases in Sri Lanka. On 23 August 2021, the CEO of the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB), Hamid Shinwari, confirmed that the tour had been postponed, due to the situation in Afghanistan, the logistics in travelling, and for the welfare of the team. Both cricket boards agreed to reschedule the matches for some point during 2022. (en)
