The Asia Cup, a major cricket tournament, will be held between August 31 and September 17. Two rival teams, India and Pakistan, are expected to meet twice during the tournament. However, India has decided not to travel to Pakistan for the match, which will most likely take place in Dambulla, Sri Lanka.
In an interview, Arun Dhumal, a representative of the Board of Cricket Control in India (BCCI), confirmed the Asia Cup’s schedule. He added that India would not participate in the game between the two teams in Pakistan. This year’s match between Pakistan and India is something that fans are eagerly anticipating. In every season of men’s cricket since 1992, the two teams have faced off at least twice.
In their most recent match, India won by a margin of 10 wickets during the 2021 T20 World Cup. Following a meeting between BCCI secretary Jay Shah and Zaka Ashraf, the representative head of the Pakistan Cricket Board, it was decided not to participate in the Asia Cup in Pakistan.
According to Arun Dhumal, four Asia Cup league stage matches will be held in Pakistan, with the remaining matches scheduled in Sri Lanka. “Our secretary met with PCB head Zaka Ashraf and the Asia Cup schedule was finalized based on previous discussions.” “There will be four league stage matches in Pakistan, followed by nine matches in Sri Lanka, including the India versus Pakistan game, and possibly a third game if both teams make it to the final,” said Dhumal.
