India are the reigning champions in the competition, having won seven trophies in the history of the competition - which started in 2004. Bangladesh are the only other side to have won the tournament, beating India in the final by three wickets in 2018.

Alongside the two previous champion sides, Pakistan, Nepal, UAE, Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Nepal will also feature. The competition is split into a group stage and semi-finals, before the final. The eight teams have been divided into two groups of four, with Pakistan, India, UAE and Nepal making up Group A, and Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Nepal Group B.

Each side will play each of the other teams in their group once, with the top two teams qualifying for the semifinals. The two semifinals both take place on July 26, ahead of the final on July 28.
