So after a long wait, we have good news for Pakistani Cricket lovers Pakistan will host the next T20 Asia Cup? Yes, Pakistan will host the next T20 Asia Cup. Pakistanis now can watch the international cricket stars in their home grounds.
Pakistan has won the rights to host the next T20 Aisa Cup which will be going to held in 2020. Total 6 Asian teams will participate in the event. Here is the teams' list:
- Pakistan
- India
- Srilanka
- Bangladesh
- Afghanistan
- Hongkong (Not sure)
The said decision was taken during the annual meeting of Asian Cricket Council (ACC) on last Thursday. However, the venues of the event have not yet been decided and Pakistan can only host the event if Pakistan convinces ACCs security team otherwise the will be shifted to UAE.
The next T20VAsia Cup has been scheduled in September 2020 a month before the big cricketing event "World T20 Cup" in Austraila.
Ehsan Mani, the chief development officer of ACC, expressed his views about Asia Cricket:
“We have a long programme to develop the Asian cricket. We want to start from under-16 and under-19 to the Asia Cup.
Pakistan last time hosted Aisa Cup back in 2008 and after the attack on SiriLankan team Pakistan never hosted any international Cricket event, However Pakistan hosted World II, West Indies, and Zimbway after that incident.
If Pakistan gets security clearance from ACCs team then it will be great news and a big event for Pakistanis after almost 12 years.
We hope ACC will give security clearance to Pakistan as Pakistan is now a safe country.
