BCCI president Sourav Ganguly said that the Asia Cup 2020, which was scheduled to be held in September, stands cancelled. There is however no official confirmation from the Asian Cricket Council yet.

In conversation in an Instagram Live session, Ganguly said, “Asia Cup cancel ho chuka hai, joh September me tha (Asia Cup, which was to be held in September, has been cancelled).”

There was no definitive word on the host country of the tournament. With T20 World Cup in October-November also unlikely to go ahead in Australia due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Asia Cup’s cancellation allows the BCCI to have a full-fledged IPL in the same window.
