The Blind Asia Cup is set to make a comeback after almost a decade, as the hosts, venue and date for the competition were locked on November 7. The second-ever edition of the tournament will take place between five teams in the third week of November.

The last time a Blind Asia Cup was hosted in February 2017, when India faced Pakistan in the final at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium and defeated the arch-rivals by 9 wickets, as they chased 199 runs. As India looks to defend their continental crown, here's a brief look at the details of the tournament.

India eye to continue dominance in Blind Cricket

Including the aforementioned Blind Asia Cup in 2017, India have dominated Blind Cricket across Men's and Women's Cricket. In total, they have won 6 Men's and 3 Women's titles, with the latest one coming in the form of the Women's T20 World Cup in 2025.

The Men's team have won two T20 World Cups, three ODI World Cups and the only T20 Asia Cup that took place a decade ago.

The historic rivals across competitions and neighbours, India and Pakistan, are scheduled to take on each other on November 17. The tournament will open with a ceremony on November 14, while the matches begin on the following day.

The final will be played on November 20 at the same venue between the top two teams after a Round-Robin first phase.
