The wait is almost over as the Asia Cup 2025, the biggest Asian tournament, is set to commence on September 9, with eight teams competing for the biggest title. The teams are divided into groups of two, and the top 2 sides will reach the Super 4 stage of the tournament.

Team India is the defending champions, having won the Asia Cup in 2023, but that was the ODI edition, and the upcoming tournament will be played in T20 format. The winner of the marquee event is set to earn a hefty amount as prize money, and if India manages to defend their crown, here is how much prize money they would get.

How much would India earn if they win Asia Cup 2025

Reportedly, Sri Lanka, who won the last Asia Cup T20 edition, earned around USD 200,000 (approx Rs 1.6 crore). Now, as per reports, the prize money for the upcoming edition is set to increase, and if Suryakumar Yadav-led India win the competition, they would earn around USD 300,000 (almost Rs 2.6 crore). Almost half the price from last season will shoot up as the winners will get a hefty amount to win the mega event.

India's group in Asia Cup 2025

Considering the other group, India is likely to have an easy path towards the Super 4 stage. India will have Pakistan, Oman, and the UAE in their group, with arch-rivals Pakistan likely to offer a stern test.

India will start their campaign with a clash against the UAE on September 10, followed by a mouth-watering match vs Pakistan on the 14th at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Team India will conclude the group stage with a game against Oman on September 19.
