AFG vs BAN 2025, ODI Series: Broadcast & Live Streaming Details – When and Where to watch in India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Rest of the World

Afghanistan and Bangladesh are set to contest a crucial three-match One Day International (ODI) series starting October 8, 2025, in the UAE. This series immediately follows Bangladesh’s impressive 3-0 whitewash of Afghanistan in the preceding T20I leg, providing the Afghan side with strong motivation to bounce back in the 50-over format, where they recently defeated Bangladesh 2-1 in a 2024 series.

The ODIs will serve as vital preparation for both teams as they focus on building a robust unit ahead of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2027. The transition to ODIs will shift the focus to endurance and anchor batting, especially on the traditionally slow Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium pitch in Abu Dhabi. Afghanistan, captained by Hashmatullah Shahidi, will bank on the consistency of their in-form ODI players like Rahmanullah Gurbaz and all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai, along with their world-class spin attack to make the most of the conditions.

Conversely, Bangladesh, led by all-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz, will rely on their refreshed squad, featuring a maiden call-up for Saif Hassan, to secure crucial runs and for their pacers like Taskin Ahmed to exploit any early movement. Afghanistan’s leadership under Shahidi is keenly aware of the need to assert dominance in this format after the T20 setback, while Bangladesh seeks to continue their momentum and avenge their previous ODI series loss to Afghanistan. The series is predicted to be tightly contested, offering a significant opportunity for both sides to gain a psychological edge and solidify their ODI credentials.
