Karachi, Aug. 1 -- Pakistan will face off against Afghanistan and the United Arab Emirates in a T20I tri-series, starting August 29 in Sharjah later this month.
The tournament will take place ahead of the Asia Cup in September, as the sub-continent teams prepare for next year's T20 World Cup.
The opening fixture will see Pakistan square up against last year's T20 World Cup semi-finalists, Afghanistan. All three teams will face each other twice, with the top two sides then advancing to
the final scheduled for September 7.
The two teams have played against each other at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium five times in T20Is, with Pakistan having got the better of Afghanistan thrice while the latter have emerged victorious on two other occasions....
