Afghanistan Cricket Board CEO Naseeb: Afghanistan have named their Test squad for the one-off Test match against Ireland starting in Abu Dhabi on February 28. Limited-overs star Rahmanullah Gurbaz has been named in Afghanistan's squad for the one-off Test match against Ireland and could potentially make his debut in the format.

Rashid Khan, who is still recovering from the lower-back surgery, is not part of the squad. Afghanistan have added additional spin cover in the form of leg-spinner Khalil Gurbaz.

Fast Bowler Ibrahim Abdulrahimzai also earned a recall to the squad to be led by Hashmatullah Shahidi, while Yamin Ahmadzai and Mohammad Saleem Safi were ruled out with injuries.
