<p>Jay Shah, ACC President, on behalf of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC), announced Asia Cup Schedule on 19th July. The announcement came after a long delay due to the tussle between the BCCI and the PCB. The BCCI had asserted that it would not send its players to Pakistan, which was the official host of the Asia Cup 2023, due to the long-standing border tensions between the two nations. On the other side, Pakistan was adamant to host the tournament on its own.</p>



<p>Eventually, following multiple rounds of meetings, a middle course was zeroed in on to conduct the six-team tournament in a hybrid model, with it being co-hosted by Sri Lanka.</p>



<p>Sri Lanka are the reigning champions of the Asia Cup, having won the last year's edition by defeating Pakistan by 23 runs in the UAE. Talking about history, India are decorated with the Asia Cup title seven times since its inception in 1984 while Sri Lanka stands second in the list with six titles in its cabinet.</p>

<p>The tournament will begin on August 30 with the host Pakistan taking on Nepal and will be a major test for all teams ahead of the World Cup 2023, which is set to start on 5 October.</p>



<p>The Aisa Cup has a remarkable history that is rendered in golden words. In 1984, the competition had its inaugural event. Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and India were the only 3 teams that participated. India won the inaugural title under Sunil Gavaskar's leadership. Since then, there have been 15 iterations of the competition, with India taking home the most trophies. Seven times, the Men in Blue have raised the trophy.</p>



<p>With six titles, Sri Lanka is second in terms of the total number of trophies. Additionally, they are the reigning champs. Pakistan has won twice, the most recent being in 2012.</p>

<p>For 30 years, the Asia Cup was played just in the ODI format till 2014 but then, T20I format was added to every alternative year. As we know, the 2022 edition was a T20I format Asia Cup, it will be a 50-over Asia Cup this time around.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="asia-cup-2023-format-and-full-roadmap"><strong>Asia Cup 2023 Format and Full Roadmap</strong></h2>



<p>This edition of the Asia Cup is going to be played in a 50-over format. It will be 5 years since the Asia Cup was last played in ODI format. Pakistan was the official host of Asia Cup 2023 previously.</p>



<p>Although Pakistan is the tournament's official host, just four of the 13 games will actually take place there; the rest will be played in Sri Lanka. As a result of political tensions between India and Pakistan, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) refused to visit Pakistan land and ACC decided not to hold the event there. Then, ACC and PCB designed a hybrid approach to play the ASIA Cup 2023.</p>



<p><strong><em>The six-team tournament will have two groups with three teams each who will play each other in a single round-robin format. The team ending last in the respective group will be eliminated at the end of the group stage.</em></strong></p>



<p><strong><em>The remaining four teams will head forward to the next stage and face off against each other in the Super-Four stage. These four teams will play 6 matches in this stage and the TOP 2 teams of Super-four will head to the Finals of Asia Cup 2023.</em></strong></p>



<p>The final of Asia Cup 2023 will be played on 17 September in Colombo, Sri Lanka.</p>
