List of Afghanistan T20I cricketers

The Afghanistan national cricket team playing in Rotterdam in 2010 ICC WCL Division One

A T20I is an international cricket match between two teams that have official Twenty20 International status, as determined by the International Cricket Council.^[1] It is played under the rules of Twenty20 cricket and is the shortest form of the game. Afghanistan played its first T20I match on 1 February 2010, against Ireland, losing the match by 5 wickets.^[2] Their first win came three days later in their second T20I match, which was against Canada, with Afghanistan winning by 5 wickets with one ball remaining.^[3]

This list comprises all members of the Afghanistan cricket team who have played at least one T20I match. It is initially arranged in the order in which each player won his first Twenty20 cap. Where more than one player won his first Twenty20 cap in the same match, those players are listed alphabetically by surname.
