India is confirmed to host the Men’s Asia Cup in 2025.

Six teams—Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka—will compete in both Men’s Asia Cup editions. A sixth team will be chosen following the conclusion of the qualifying event.

The Asian Cricket Council (ACC) released the Invitation for Expressions of Interest (IEOI) for the sponsorship rights document on Saturday, confirming the move.

The letter invites interested parties to submit an IEOI for ACC Sponsorship Rights between 2024 and 2027.

The statement also made clear that all information, including schedules, dates, formats, and locations, is tentative and is subject to change at the ACC’s sole discretion and without notice.

Notably, the six-team competition is anticipated to take place in September of the following year, following the conclusion of the nation’s monsoon season. However, the actual calendar for the ACC Men’s Asia Cup 2025 has not yet been decided upon.

Recall that Pakistan was granted the privilege of hosting the previous continental competition. But because the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) declined to send Team India to Pakistan, it was played under a hybrid format, with Sri Lanka serving as the co-host.

Because of this, Pakistan was only able to host four of the nine matches, including the championship game, which was held in Sri Lanka.

India emerged victorious in the competition, which was dubbed a perfect chance for the best Asian teams to get ready for the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup 2023.
