This prestigious cricket tournament is jointly hosted by Pakistan and Sri Lanka and features matches played in the One Day International (ODI) format. Six teams are competing for glory in this edition of the tournament, which is scheduled to take place from August 30 to September 17, 2023. The defending champions, Sri Lanka, are looking to retain their title.

This Asia Cup is unique because it is the first to be hosted across multiple countries. Four matches are set to be held in Pakistan, with the remaining nine in Sri Lanka. The tournament’s participants include the five full members of the Asian Cricket Council: Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka. Joining them is Nepal, who secured their spot by winning the 2023 ACC Men’s Premier Cup.

A notable feature of this edition is the “hybrid format,” where games are organized in two countries. All teams except for India are scheduled to play at least a few matches in Pakistan. Objections from the Indian Government influenced India’s decision not to travel to Pakistan.

The roadmap for the 2023 and 2024 cricket calendar, including the dates and format of this tournament, was announced by the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) in January 2023. Originally slated for 2021, the Asia Cup had to be postponed to 2023 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Fans and cricket enthusiasts eagerly anticipated the announcement of the tournament’s fixtures, which were officially disclosed on July 19, 2023.
