Asia Cup 2025 :The Asian Cricket Council (ACC) has officially unveiled the venues for the Men’s Asia Cup 2025. The much-anticipated group-stage encounter between India and Pakistan is scheduled for September 14 at the iconic Dubai International Stadium. The tournament will commence in Abu Dhabi with a clash between Afghanistan and Hong Kong and culminate with the final on September 28 in Dubai.
This announcement comes amidst geopolitical unease following the Pahalgam terror attack and India’s military response via Operation Sindoor, which has stirred debate over India’s participation.
