The Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) has announced that the third edition of the National T20 Cup will commence on May 2 in Kunduz province. The tournament is scheduled to run for 13 days and will feature cricket teams representing five regional zones across the country.
According to an official statement released by the cricket board, the competition aims to promote domestic cricket and provide a competitive platform for players from different parts of Afghanistan.

The board indicated that logistical arrangements and match schedules are being finalized ahead of the opening day. Officials emphasized that preparations are underway to ensure the smooth execution of the 13-day competition. The event will follow the standard Twenty20 format, with the five regional teams competing for the championship title.
