One of the most exciting things about the Asian Cup is the fierce competition and the emotions it creates.

Sri Lanka and Bangladesh also have fierce competition, like Afghanistan and Pakistan. These competitions add a level of excitement to the tournament and make each match feel like an event not to be missed.
AFC Asian Cup 2023 – format
First held in 1984, the format of the Asian Cup has also evolved over time. In the early years, it was a simple tournament where each team played against each other. But as more teams were added to the tournament, a group stage format was introduced. Today, the AFC Asian Cup consists of two groups of six teams each, and the top two teams in each group advance to the final round. This year, Nepal qualified as the sixth nation after beating the UAE in the final of ACC Men’s Premier Cup 2023 by a low score. The two groups include Pakistan, India and Nepal in Group A and Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan in Group B.

The venue of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup
The host country of this year’s Asian Cup was supposed to be Pakistan, but due to the negative attitude of BCCI, BCB and SLCB regarding security, the venue of the matches is still in doubt. Initially, the PCB proposed a hybrid tournament organization model. Because of this uncertainty, Sri Lanka is the leading candidate to host the Asian Cup.

The Asian Cup is held every two years and the 2023 Asian Cup is scheduled to be held in September ahead of the 2023 World Cup. But due to the ongoing debate over the organization of the tournament, the exact date is yet to be announced. dad. The fifteenth edition of the tournament was held in the United Arab Emirates and won against Sri Lanka, who beat Pakistan by 23 runs in the final.
Consequences of change of location.
The decisions of the BCCI, BCB and SLCB can have some serious impact on the ticketing relationship between the three boards. After BCCI refused to send players to Pakistan, the head of PCB reacted strongly by saying: “After chairing the ACC meeting in which Pakistan was awarded the ACC Asia Cup with support and reaction Strongly from the ACC board members, Mr. Shah’s statement o the relocation of the ACC Asian Cup was clearly done unilaterally. This is in contrast to the philosophy and spirit with which the Asian Cricket Council was established in September 1983 – a unified Asian cricket body to protect the interests of its members and to organize, develop and promote dominate cricket in Asia.”
