Asia Cup 2025 Schedule

The 17th edition of the Asia Cup 2025 Schedule is set to be a month-long tournament of high-stakes rivalries and epic cricket moments, and will feature eight top teams from across Asia. The competition, which is scheduled to begin on September 9 in the UAE and will run through to 28 September, will be held in the T20 format, and will feature 19 matches. India, who are the defending champions, will look to retain their title and will also be hoping for some memorable matches against Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Hong Kong, and Oman.

India and Pakistan have been paired in Group A alongside Oman and UAE, while Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan are all part of Group B. Two teams from each group will advance to the Super Four stage, which will be a round-robin, and the top two will then meet in the final on September 28. The matchups are bound to be electric, as arch-rivals India and Pakistan could face off against each other in the group stage as well as the Super Four, and potentially even in the final if both teams make it that far.
