Asian Cricket Council (ACC), has hinted that they are going to restart the Afro Asia cup in 2023 in T20 format.
The tournament which may take place in June-July next year is waiting for the final approval from other respective individual cricket boards.
The event will be discussed in detail at the next month’s ICC Annual General Meeting and a final call will be taken there.
