RE: Asia cup 2015

After the Asian Cricket Council was
downsized by the International
Cricket Council (ICC) in April 2015, it
was announced that upcoming Asia
Cup events will be played on
rotation basis in One Day
International (ODI) and Twenty20
International (T20I) format based
on respective next world events
under the ICC.[2][3] This means
that the 2016 and 2020 events will
be played using the T20I format,
ahead of the 2016 and 2020 World
Twenty20s, and the 2018 and 2022
events will be played in ODI
format, ahead of the 2019 and 2023
World Cups respectively..[4]

RE: Asia cup 2016

The four-team Asia Cup T20 Qualifier
will be held in Bangladesh from
February 19 to 22. Afghanistan, Hong
Kong, Oman and UAE will play each
other to decide the one Associate
who will advance to the main draw
involving the region's four Full
Member teams.
ESPNcricinfo understands the format
for the qualifier will feature a single
round-robin stage with each team
playing three matches and the team
that finishes on top will advance to
the main event. In case two teams
finish with the same points, their net
run rates will be used as tiebreaker.
Sources had earlier indicated that
the qualifier might be played in
November in the UAE due to the fact
that Hong Kong are touring to play
UAE for a four-day Intercontinental
Cup match and two WCL
Championship ODIs while
Afghanistan are hosting Papua New
Guinea at Sharjah in the I-Cup a few
days later.
Oman's geographical proximity to
the UAE was also a factor, but the four
Asian teams will be playing a series
of bilateral T20Is against each other
from November 25 to 30. They will be
the first T20Is for each country since
the World T20 Qualifier in June.
Afghanistan, Hong Kong and Oman
have all qualified for the World T20
next March in India.
