The ODI Asia Cup 2023 title was won by the Indian team by defeating Sri Lanka. Now India will host the Men’s Asia Cup 2025, which will take place before the T20 World Cup to be held in the country in 2026. The Asian Cricket Council has announced this. Bangladesh will host this tournament in the ODI format in 2027 as the ODI World Cup is to be played in South Africa in 2027.
The Asia Cup is always used as preparations for the global event and is played in the same format in which the World Cup will be held. The 2023 season of the Asia Cup was hosted by the Pakistan Cricket Board on a ‘hybrid model’. India then refused to tour Pakistan and after that, all the matches of India were played in Sri Lanka.
The Asia Cup, played in T20 format in India and 50-over format in Bangladesh, will have 13-13 matches. The Asia Cup is going to be organized in India after 34 years. Earlier, the 1991 Men’s Asia Cup was organized in India. There is every possibility of the Pakistani team coming to the Asia Cup to be held in India. The ODI World Cup 2023 was also organized in India. Even then the Pakistani team came to India to play cricket.
The Asian Cricket Council said in a statement issued in the IEOI that ‘Men’s Asia Cup Tournament’ means a men’s cricket tournament organized at an interval of two years among the members nominated by the ACC. It will have the participation of teams from Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and a non-Test playing member of the ACC. The non-Test country will make its place in it from the qualifying tournament.
