Asian Cricket Council (ACC) president Mohsin Naqvi has officially confirmed that the 2025 edition of the Men’s Asia Cup will be hosted in the UAE from September 9 to 28.

Naqvi made the announcement on his official X (formerly Twitter) handle, adding that the detailed match schedule will be released soon.

“I am delighted to confirm the dates for the ACC Men’s Asia Cup 2025 in UAE. The Prestigious tournament will take place from September 9th to 28th. We look forward to a spectacular display of cricket! Detailed schedule will be out soon,” Mohsin Naqvi wrote on X.

While the tournament will take place in the UAE, the BCCI will act as the official host at a neutral venue—part of an agreement reached during a breakthrough at the recent ACC Annual General Meeting.

After the recent AGM meeting in Dhaka, Naqvi confirmed that productive discussions were held with the BCCI, with both boards committed to keeping cricket free of political interference.

“We have agreed to work together for the betterment of cricket. These two days were very productive and memorable. Everyone wants to keep politics out of cricket. The BCCI is in discussion with a few event partners, and they have told us they will announce the schedule soon,” Naqvi had said during a ACC meet in Dhaka.

The tournament will feature eight teams: India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Hong Kong, UAE, and Oman. A total of 19 matches will be played, including the final on the last Sunday of September.
