The upcoming Asia Cup 2025, scheduled to commence on September 10 in the UAE, is surrounded by uncertainties concerning the participation of India’s top cricketers. Notably, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma will not be part of the tournament as both have retired from T20 internationals following India’s victory in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
The tournament will feature six teams, including India and Pakistan, and will adhere to the T20 format. However, due to ongoing political tensions and security concerns stemming from incidents such as the Pahalgam terror attack and India’s Operation Sindoor, the Asia Cup is expected to be hosted at a neutral venue.
Key details include:
- The final government clearance for India’s participation is still pending.
- The official tournament schedule is anticipated to be released by the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) in early July.
- This situation has generated considerable interest and discussion within the cricket community across Asia.
Fans and followers of Asian cricket are advised to stay tuned to Questiqa World News for continuous updates on the tournament and related developments.
