With the Asia Cup 2025 scheduled in the UAE just days away, the BCCI is racing against time. It is being said that the discussions are at an advanced stage, but the board is unlikely to seal the deal before the Asia Cup 2025 kickoff on September 9 in the UAE.
A BCCI source was quoted as saying by Sports Tak: “We are trying our best. It's not just the Asia Cup but a full cycle of three years. It will be in the public domain soon, but chances of completing it in time, just before the Asia Cup, are slim. We are working on it. Let's see what happens.”
