The Afro-Asia Cup—a series of white-ball matches featuring an Asian XI against an African XI—could be set for revival, according to a report by ESPN Cricinfo. If the cross-continental tournament is officially reinstated, it would provide an opportunity for players from India and Pakistan to share the same dressing room.
The tournament was last held in 2007, featuring players from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and other Asian nations, while South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Kenya represented Africa.
If the Afro-Asia Cup is revived, it is expected that up to 80% of media rights revenue will be directed to the Africa Cricket Association, providing big boost to cricket development in the region.
