Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) has confirmed a change in the schedule for the Asia Cup 2025, announcing that all night matches will now begin 30 minutes later than originally planned. The adjustment has been made due to the intense heat conditions in the UAE.
While just one of the 19 fixtures was slated as a day match, it will continue to start at the originally scheduled time.
The revised timings for the evening games have been finalized in consultation with broadcasters, ensuring both player safety and viewer convenience remain a priority during the tournament.
