Asia Cup 2023 Schedule Unveiled by ACC President Jay Shah

On Wednesday evening, the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) President Jay Shah declared the schedule for the upcoming Asia Cup 2023. The initial hybrid plan revealed that Pakistan would be hosting four games, while Sri Lanka would be hosting the remaining nine. India will play all their matches, including the knockout rounds, in the island nation.

Changes to the Rules

The official schedule for the premier Asian tournament was made public after months of anticipation. Pakistan will be hosting three group-stage matches and one Super 4 match. The ACC has decided to drop the positional rating in the group stage due to India’s refusal to travel to Pakistan. The first Super 4 match will be held in Lahore between the A1 and B2 teams. Even if India remain undefeated in the group stage, they will not be classified as the A1 squad because of the recent changes to the rules.

Conclusion

No matter where the teams stand after the first round, the Asia Cup 2023 schedule is finally out and it is sure to be an exciting tournament. With the ACC President Jay Shah’s announcement, the fans are now eagerly awaiting the commencement of the tournament.
