The 2023 Men’s Emerging Teams Asia Cup will be played out in the 50-over format after the Women’s version of the same event was played in the T20 format last month.
The tournament starts on July 13, with all matches scheduled to take place across the three venues of R Premadasa International Cricket Stadium, P Sara Oval, and Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo.
Earlier editions of the tournament used to have an age barrier with teams generally allowed to field Under-23 players only. However, the 2023 edition has no such restriction.
Seven ‘A’ teams along with Nepal, will be participating in the tournament. They have been divided into two groups of four teams each. The group stages will be played in a single round-robin format with each team playing three matches.
The top two teams from both groups will qualify for the semi-finals. The final will be played on July 23 at the R Premadasa International Cricket Stadium.
