The Afghanistan cricket team toured India in June 2018 to play a one-off Test match against the India cricket team.[1][2] It was Afghanistan's first Test since they were awarded the Test status by the International Cricket Council (ICC) in June 2017.[3] India won the match in two days by an innings and 262 runs.[4] Afghanistan were dismissed twice in the same day, only the fourth time this has happened in Tests.[5] For India, it was their biggest win by an innings in Tests,[6] and they became the first Asian team to win a Test match inside two days.[7]
After the match, India's captain Ajinkya Rahane said that playing more Tests and first-class cricket would improve the Afghan side.[8] Phil Simmons, Afghanistan's coach, said that the team were "by no means happy' with their performance", but believed they would get there with further hard work.[9]
