Taking to Twitter, he wrote “Thank you @JayShah for unilaterally presenting @ACCMedia1 structure & calendars 2023-24 especially relating to Asia Cup 2023 for which 🇵🇰 is the event host. While you are at it, you might as well present structure & calendar of our PSL 2023! A swift response will be appreciated.”

Jay Shah is also serving as the BCCI secretary. September window has been provided for this year’s Asia Cup. India and Pakistan are in the same group for Asia Cup 2023, the third team to be added via qualifiers.
The structure shared by Shah didn’t go into host details for this year’s Asia Cup, but included all continental tournaments including age-group matches in men’s and women’s cricket to be organized by the ACC across the two years.
