InsideSport The Asia Cup is just a few days away, and India and Pakistan would perhaps be the strongest teams to enter the competition. With the tournament happening in the UAE, the batters could be in focus once again — especially the ones who can play long innings, and are ready to spend time on the wicket.
Before the tournament starts, it becomes important to look at the highest run-getters in the Asia Cup, albeit, only in the T20I format. 2025 edition will only be the third T20I Asia Cup, after 2016 and 2022.
