Asia Cup 2025: Complete guide to TV Broadcast channels and live streaming platforms across the globe

Fresh off two back-to-back ICC trophies and an outstanding performance in the Test series in England, Team India is now gearing up for for the highly anticipated Asia Cup 2025. The tournament, which begins on September 9, will be held in the UAE instead of the originally planned host country, India. In a format switch from the last edition, the competition will be played in the T20 format.

This will be India's first major tournament since the retirements of key players Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Ravindra Jadeja. With the veterans gone, a new generation of players, including Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, and Sanju Samson, will be under pressure to perform. The team will be led by Suryakumar Yadav, though his participation is currently in doubt.

Suryakumar recently returned to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru following hernia surgery earlier this year but has not yet been declared match-fit by the BCCI. In addition, there are reports that star pacer Jasprit Bumrah will also be unavailable due to an injury. The final status of both players will remain uncertain until India's official squad for the competition is announced.

The Asia Cup 2025 is scheduled to be held in the United Arab Emirates in September. The tournament will feature eight teams competing in the T20 format, with a total of 19 matches, culminating in the final on September 28. One of the most highly anticipated fixtures will be the clash between rivals India and Pakistan during the group stage, an event that always attracts a massive global audience.

The competition is structured into a group stage, a Super Four round, and a final. The eight teams are split into two groups of four, and they will play each other in a round-robin format. While India, Pakistan, UAE, Oman have been placed in Group A, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Hong Kong and Afghanistan are slotted in Group B. The top two teams from each group will advance to the Super Four stage, where they will once again compete against each other. The two highest-ranking teams from the Super Four will then proceed to the final. This month-long event promises to be a thrilling celebration of T20 cricket and serves as an excellent warm-up for the T20 World Cup in 2026.
