India are all set to host the upcoming edition of the Men’s Asia Cup tournament to be played in T20 format in 2025, as per the Invitation for Expression of Interest (IEOI) by the Asian Cricket Council for sponsorship rights. The last edition of the tournament, which was held in 2023, was hosted by Pakistan in hybrid model after India declined to travel to Pakistan and played their matches in Sri Lanka.
After 34 years, India will be hosting the tournament as the defending champions, having clinched the title in the last edition of the tournament in 2023. The last time India hosted the title was back in 1990.
