Team India are the defending champions of the Asia Cup, which was last played in 2018 in an ODI format. India won the title by beating Bangladesh in a last-ball thriller in Dubai. This edition of the Asia Cup was moved to the UAE from Sri Lanka because of the ongoing economic crisis in the island nation.
