ACC Reschedules Women’s Emerging Teams Asia Cup Dubai, UAE, [2nd June 2025] – The Asian Cricket Council (ACC) announces the rescheduling of the ACC Women’s Emerging Teams Asia Cup, previously set to commence on June 6, 2025, in Sri Lanka. The decision to postpone the tournament comes after consultations were held on a letter received from Mr. Shammi Silva, President Sri Lanka Cricket Board, who wrote to the President of the ACC, seeking postponement of the event citing adverse weather conditions in Sri Lanka and health concerns owing to the spread of chikungunya disease in the region.

The ACC values the importance of promoting women’s cricket and nurturing emerging talent in the region. “The ACC is committed to providing opportunities for young women cricketers to develop their skills and compete at the highest level,” said Mr. Mohsin Raza Naqvi, President Asian Cricket Council. “We understand the strategic significance of this tournament in shaping the future of women’s cricket in Asia, and we will work diligently to reschedule the event at the earliest possible date.”

The ACC will announce the new dates for the tournament in due course. We appreciate the understanding of all participating teams, players, commercial partners, and stakeholders.
