Preview
In the opening ODI of the Afghanistan tour of India 2026, India will take on Afghanistan. India recently defeated Afghanistan by an innings and 300 runs in the one-off Test match, and now the focus shifts to the ODI series, which begins in Dharamshala.
India's last ODI series against New Zealand ended in disappointment as they lost the series. The team will be looking to bounce back and start this series on a winning note. However, Virat Kohli and Hardik Pandya will miss the series due to injuries. Prince Yadav, Gurnoor Brar, and Harsh Dubey have been added to the ODI squad. India has won two and lost three of their last five ODIs.
Meanwhile, Afghanistan will enter the series with confidence, having won four of their last five ODIs. This will be their first-ever bilateral ODI series against India. Rashid Khan, Rahmanullah Gurbaz, and all-rounder Azmatullah Omarzai will be key players for the visitors. However, Afghanistan have struggled against India in the past and is yet to register a win against them across formats
