ACB Added to ACC Presidency Rotation!

At the recent Annual General Meeting of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC), a significant step was taken towards strengthening Afghanistan’s role within the leadership and development of Asian cricket.

Following an initiative put forward by ACB Chairman Mr. Mirwais Ashraf, the ACC Member Boards expressed their support for Afghanistan’s inclusion in the Council’s leadership framework, while also supporting the consideration of Afghanistan as a host for future ACC tournaments and events.

These important decisions reflect the growing recognition, confidence, and standing of Afghanistan Cricket within Asia, while opening new opportunities for Afghanistan to contribute more actively to the leadership of Asian cricket and to host major ACC events in the future.

The Afghanistan Cricket Board sincerely appreciates the Asian Cricket Council and its Member Boards for their confidence, support, and continued cooperation, and remains committed to working alongside its Asian counterparts to further contribute to the growth, development, and advancement of cricket across Asia.
