It’s not just a cricketing season, specifically it is a T20 cricket season, which is making people go crazy all over. Apart from mega T20 events like PSL, BBL, MCL, here is coming more your way and it is something you will be liking more. Yeah, I am talking about Asia T20 Cup and later the ICC World T20, both these events are highly anticipated.
Pakistanis are super excited as after playing PSL their stars are in full swing to win both these T20 mega events. Although, at the same time it should be well known that Pakistan is not the hot favorite of winning any of the title out of it.
Asia Cup, which has just started, is one of the most prestigious cricketing event for the cricket playing Asian countries. This is the very first time when Asia Cup is being played as a T20 event, although this move looks a visible preparation for the Asian resident teams for the mega event ICC World T20, which is all set to go live from March 8.
