The Asia Cup 2022 will be held in UAE, as reported by ESPNcricinfo earlier this month. Sri Lanka will remain hosts for the tournament to be played between August 27 and September 11.
“Every effort was made to host the Asia Cup in Sri Lanka and the decision to shift the venue to the UAE was taken after much deliberation,” Jay Shah, the Asian Cricket Council President, was quoted as saying in a press release on Wednesday. “The UAE will be the new venue while Sri Lanka will continue to retain hosting rights.”
