Trott, ACB Settle Dispute With New Deal Through 2026 Ahead of Zimbabwe T20Is

The agreement restores clarity on selection and planning for a team chasing momentum before the T20 World Cup.

Overview

  • Jonathan Trott said any miscommunication with the Afghanistan Cricket Board has been resolved after talks with stakeholders and top management.
  • He confirmed a contract that runs through the end of the 2026 T20 World Cup and reiterated his commitment to the role.
  • Afghanistan face Zimbabwe in three T20Is in Harare on October 29, October 31 and November 3 as part of their build‑up.
  • Trott previously criticised poor communication and said he had been excluded from squad selection and contact with senior officials.
  • ACB officials have indicated a desire to retain him beyond 2026, while Trott stressed near‑term performance after a disappointing Asia Cup and a recent Test defeat.
