Asia Cup to be held in September-October

Sports Reporter :
The Asia Cup will be held in September-October in either Sri Lanka or in United Arab Emirates (UAE). The ICC World Cup T20 is uncertain due to coronavirus outbreak. In this situation, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Wasim Khan has revealed that the Asia Cup will be held in September-October either in Sri Lanka or in UAE. That means Asia Cup will not be held in Pakistan.
Wasim Khan said at a press conference in Karachi that after ending of Pakistan-England series, the Asia Cup would be held in either Sri Lanka or in UAE.
Pakistan team will return home from England on September 2.
He said, ” We are optimistic that coronavirus situation is under control in Sri Lanka. If Sri Lanka could not stage the Asia Cup, UAE is prepared to arrange the Asia Cup.”
Khan said Pakistan, the original host of the event, had agreed to let Sri Lanka conduct it in return for hosting the next regional event.
He also confirmed that the PCB is working on options to play cricket in the window for the T20 World Cup if it doesn’t go ahead as planned in October-November.
“We are to go to New Zealand in December after hosting Zimbabwe at home. South Africa are ready to tour in January-February to play two or three Tests and some T20 matches,” he disclosed.
Khan said the board was looking at a November window for completing the Pakistan Super League’s remaining five matches.
