The Men's Asia Cup is the biennial cricket tournament organised by the Asian Cricket Council. The competition is contested by Asian members' senior men's national cricket teams, determining the continental champion of Asia.<ref name=":0" /> It was established in 1983 when the Asian Cricket Council was founded as a measure to promote goodwill between Asian countries being the only continental championship in cricket where the winning team becomes the champion of Asia. India are the defending champions after winning the 2023 edition.

The first edition was held in 1984 in Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates where the council's offices were based until 1995. India boycotted the 1986 tournament due to strained cricketing relations with Sri Lanka. Pakistan boycotted the 1990–91 tournament due to strained political relations with India and the 1993 tournament was cancelled for the same reason. The ACC announced that the tournament would be held biennially from 2009 onwards. The ICC has ruled that all games played in the Asia Cup have official ODI status.

After downsizing the Asian Cricket Council in 2015, it was announced by the ICC that Asia Cup events from 2016 would be played on a rotation basis between One Day International and Twenty20 International format, on the basis of the format of upcoming world events. As a result, the 2016 event was the first event played in the T20I format and functioned as a preparatory tournament ahead of the 2016 ICC World Twenty20.

India, with eight titles (seven ODI and one T20I), is the most successful team in the tournament. Sri Lanka is the second most successful team, with six, while Pakistan have won two titles. Sri Lanka has played the most Asia Cups (16) followed by India, Pakistan and Bangladesh (15 each).

2025 Tensions and India’s WithdrawalEdit

In May 2025, amid heightened tensions between India and Pakistan, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) decided to withdraw from all upcoming Asian Cricket Council (ACC) events, including the 2025 Men’s Asia Cup and the Women’s Emerging Teams Asia Cup in Sri LankaThe decision was reportedly influenced by the ACC's current leadership under Pakistan's Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, who also serves as the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB). According to BCCI sources, the move is part of a broader stance to diplomatically and administratively isolate Pakistan cricket following the escalation in bilateral hostilities

The BCCI stated it had verbally communicated its withdrawal to the ACC and that future participation in ACC events remains uncertain, pending guidance from the Indian government.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Afghanistan was the only team in the tournament to defeat the eventual winners Sri Lanka.

Pakistan was awarded to host the tournament.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> However, Indian cricket team was reluctant to visit Pakistan to participate in the tournament. So, after a lot of deliberation, India agreed to play in a hybrid model where India will play all their matches in another country and few other matches will be hosted in Pakistan. Thus, it was the first Asia Cup to be co-hosted by multiple countries; four matches were played in Pakistan, and the remaining nine matches were played in Sri Lanka.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The five full members of the Asian Cricket Council were joined by Nepal, who made their ACC Asia Cup debut having qualified for the first time in qualifying the 2023 ACC Men's Premier Cup.
