Afg, Windies share series
Afghanistan captain Asghar Stanikzai hopes his team will get more opportunities to face top-flight cricket nations after their ODI series against the West Indies ended in a 1-1 draw on Wednesday.
Steady rain forced the abandonment of the third and final one-dayer without a ball being bowled at St Lucia, with the series balanced at one apiece.
But Stanikzai said he believes his team did enough to show they deserve more regular matches against full-members of the ICC.
"We didn't play as well as we could have but I thought we did enough to show that we deserve to play the bigger teams more often," said Stanikzai. "This was a great experience for us and we can look forward now to what lies ahead with greater confidence."
West Indies captain Jason Holder accepted that his team faced a tough challenge.
