Asia Cup 2025 will be played between September 9 to 28 in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) has confirmed on Saturday.
Eight teams, including India and Pakistan, are set to participate in the tournament, which will be held in a T20 format
Asian Cricket Council chairman Mohsin Naqvi, who is also chairman of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) took to ‘X’ to make a formal announcement.
“I am delighted to confirm the dates of the ACC Men’s Asia Cup 2025 in UAE. The prestigious tournament will take place from September 9th to 28th. We look to a spectacular display of cricket. Details schedule will be out soon,” Naqvi posted.
The fate of the marquee clash between India and Pakistan has been in contention since India’s Operation Sindoor in May, in retaliation to the terror attacks in Jammu & Kashmir.
India is the defending champion after having beaten Sri Lanka in the final in 2023.
This edition of Asia Cup will be held in T20 format as is the convention with the next ICC global meet being T20 World Cup in India and Sri Lanka.
