A total of eight teams will participate in the competition’s sixth-edition, including the likes of India A, Sri Lanka A, Afghanistan A, Oman, Hong Kong, Pakistan A, UAE and Bangladesh A.
Last year, the previous edition of the tournament was played in Sri Lanka, where Pakistan A ended up lifting the trophy after winning against India A in the final.
Alongwith Asian Cricket Council’s five ‘A’ teams, top three-teams of the ACC Men’s Premier-Cup 2024 will be participating in this year’s Emerging-Teams Asia Cup.
Notably, UAE emerged victorious in the trophy-summit clash of the ACC Premier-Cup 2024 by defeating Oman.
In the same way, Hong Kong won versus Nepal in the third-position Play-off to qualify for the upcoming tournament scheduled to be played in Oman.
For the forthcoming tournament, all the participating teams have been divided into groups of two, with Group A consisting of Bangladesh A, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka A and Afghanistan A.
On the other hand, Group B, consists of Oman, India A, the UAE and Pakistan A.
The highly awaited India A vs Pakistan A contest will be played on the 19th of October. Top two-teams from each group will move to the semi-finals of the tournament.
Furthermore, Pakistan will be looking to execute a hat-trick of trophy wins after winning the tournament in the previous two editions.
India A, on the other hand, won the maiden season of the competition in 2013, but they have not lifted the Emerging-Teams Asia Cup trophy since then.
