Asia Cup 2025 Schedule: After a lot of controversies and speculations, the 2025 Asia Cup returns this September, as India and Pakistan prepare for a group-stage clash on September 14, a fixture that could be the first of three meetings between the subcontinental rivals should both teams reach the Super 4s and the final.

Asia Cup 2025 Groups

The 2025 Asia Cup, marking its 17th edition, will kick off on September 9 in the United Arab Emirates. Two teams will test their tusks in two different groups. India finds itself in Group A with arch-rivals Pakistan, Oman, and the host nation UAE, and will begin its campaign on September 10 against the hosts. Group B, on the other hand, has Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Hong Kong China, and Bangladesh.

Asia Cup 2025 Format

Every team will have 3 matches each during the group stage. Two teams from each group will walk into the Super 4 stage, which will start on September 13. The final is scheduled for September 28. 

If India and Pakistan, who are the hottest teams in the event, get their way through to reach the knockout stages, they could potentially meet 3 times, which will be huge for the tournament considering their rivalry.

Asia Cup 2025 will be played in T20 format. This is also due to the T20 World Cup next year as the teams will get a preparation ground for that. Defending champions India, who have won the Asia Cup a record eight times, will look to extend their dominance. Sri Lanka have won 6 titles, while Pakistan have won twice. Afghanistan and Hong Kong China will open proceedings on September 9. 

The ACC, which inaugurated the Asia Cup in 1983, continues to rotate the format between ODIs and T20s depending on the ICC calendar. This year’s edition, held in the heat of the UAE, will also serve as a crucial testing ground for emerging players and squad compositions in the lead-up to next year’s global event.
