KABUL (Pajhwok): The cricket board on Sunday put on display for the first time the trophies won by the national cricket team in various international events at an ongoing exhibition in Kabul.

The ‘Kabul International Exhibition’ commenced in Kabul on Thursday with the aim to find market for domestic products, encourage investors, establish relations between businessmen and introduce domestic products to the people.

On the fourth day of the exhibition, the Afghanistan Cricket Board (ACB) for the first time exhibited the cups won by the national cricket team in various international games.

ACB executive director Naseeb Khan told Pajhwok the cups were put on display in order fans could see the achievements of their national side.
