Emerging Teams Asia Cup: The 2025 Women's Emerging Teams Asia Cup, originally set to begin from June 6 in Sri Lanka, has been postponed due to adverse weather and health concerns in the country, said the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) on Monday.

In its statement, ACC said the decision to postpone the tournament, which was to be held in 20-over format, comes after consultations were held in the organisation after a letter was received from Shammi Silva, the current President of Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC).

Silva, who previously served as the ACC President, wrote to his successor Mohsin Naqvi about postponing the tournament, citing adverse weather conditions in Sri Lanka and health concerns owing to the spread of chikungunya disease in the region.
