After ten days of competitive cricket in Sharjah, it all comes down to one last game. Pakistan and Afghanistan will battle for the trophy in the UAE T20I tri-nation series final, with more than silverware on the line.
The series began on August 29, with Pakistan starting strong. Salman Ali Agha’s men beat Afghanistan and then saw off the UAE to take early control. But Afghanistan hit back in style, defeating both the UAE and Pakistan to level the points table.
With two matches left, the hosts still had an outside chance of sneaking into the final, but back‑to‑back losses to Pakistan and a second‑string Afghan side, left the UAE winless at the bottom. That set up the final everyone expected: Pakistan vs Afghanistan under the lights in Sharjah.
The winner tonight won’t just lift the tri‑nation trophy; they’ll head into the Asia Cup with momentum, as the rest of the continent’s big boys join the fray when the tournament starts on September 9.
