Australia has consistently ruled out a bilateral series against Afghanistan

Australia has been the only team to openly oppose Afghanistan since the arrival of the Taliban regime. In the last three years, Australia has refused to play bilateral series against Afghanistan thrice. This also included the Test match against Afghanistan which they were going to play in Australia. However, till now Australia has not refused to play a match against Afghanistan in any ICC event.

Only last year, Afghanistan had defeated Australia in the T-20 World Cup. However, in August last year, a three-match T-20 series was to be played between the two countries, but Australia had refused to play this series also.
