Cricket fans are buzzing about the UAE T20I Tri-Series coming up later this year. Three strong sides will battle it out in a round‑robin format, and the action promises high‑scoring games, tight finishes and plenty of drama. Whether you’re planning a trip to the desert stadium or just want to catch the live stream, this guide has all the practical details you’ll need.
The tri‑series will feature United Arab Emirates, Pakistan and Australia. Each team plays the other twice, so there are six matches total before the final. The tournament kicks off on 22 November 2025 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium and wraps up with the final on 30 November 2025 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.
Here’s the quick look at the fixtures:
All matches start at 7 pm local time, which works well for viewers in Europe and Asia.
If you’re not in the UAE, the easiest way to follow the series is through the official broadcasters. In the UK and Ireland, the rights belong to Sky Sports Cricket; they’ll also stream the games on the Sky Go app. In India, watch on SonyLIV, and in Australia, the matches are on Fox Cricket and Kayo Sports. You can also catch a free live feed on the ICC’s YouTube channel for regions without a broadcast partner.
For those who love the stadium vibe, tickets go on sale next week via the official UAE Cricket Board website. Prices start at AED 50 for general admission and go up to AED 200 for VIP seating with in‑seat service. Arrive early to soak up the desert sunset, grab a bite of shawarma, and grab a spot under the shade tents.
Key players to watch include Pakistan’s Mohammad Rizwan, who’s been in blistering form with quickfire 50s, Australia’s Marcus Stoinis, a powerful finisher, and UAE’s own all‑rounder Alishan Sharif, who can turn a game with a single over. Expect a lot of boundaries, a few six‑hour powerplays and plenty of late‑night drama.
Fans also love the interactive side‑bars that pop up on the broadcast – you can vote for “Player of the Match”, check real‑time stats, and even join a live chat with other viewers. If you’re into fantasy cricket, the tri‑series is a great chance to test your picks before the big ICC events later in the year.
That’s the nutshell of the UAE T20I Tri-Series 2025. Mark your calendar, sort your tickets or streaming plan, and get ready for some fast‑paced cricket under the Arabian stars. See you on the field or on the screen!

Skipper Salman Ali Agha hit a calm half-century and added a key 50-run stand with Mohammad Nawaz to lift Pakistan to 183. Afghanistan reached 92/2 but lost five wickets for four runs in 17 balls as Haris Rauf and Sufiyan Muqeem ripped through the middle order. The match doubled as a tune-up for the Asia Cup 2025.
