This is a list of Afghanistan Test cricketers . Afghanistan were granted full membership and therefore Test status at the International Cricket Council 's annual conference held on 22 June 2017, after a monumental rise through the associate ranks. A Test match is an international cricket match between two representative teams that are full members of the ICC. Both teams have two innings, and the match lasts up to five days. Afghanistan played their first Test match in June 2018 against India at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
The list is arranged in the order in which each player won his first Test cap. Where more than one player won his first Test cap in the same match, those players are listed alphabetically by surname.
