Asia Cup 2023 Schedule Unveiled By ACC President Jay Shah

On Wednesday evening, the President of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC), Jay Shah, declared the schedule for the Asia Cup 2023. According to the hybrid plan, Pakistan will host four games, while Sri Lanka will host the remaining nine, including the knockout rounds, for India.

Initial Hybrid Plan

The official schedule for the most prestigious tournament in Asia was revealed after months of anticipation. Pakistan will welcome three group-stage matches and one Super 4 match. The ACC has chosen to omit the positional rating in the group stage due to India’s refusal to travel to Pakistan.

The first Super 4 stage match will be held in Lahore between A1 and B2 teams. Even if the Indian squad succeeds in the group stage without any losses, they will not be labeled as the A1 squad, as the ACC has altered the regulations.

ACC Changes Rules

No matter where they stand after the first round, the ACC has modified the rules for the Asia Cup 2023. This is due to India’s refusal to travel to Pakistan, which has caused the ACC to omit the positional rating in the group stage.
