Pakistan will host four matches and Sri Lanka will be hosting most of the games in this year’s tournament.
Star Sports India Network will broadcast the matches of the ODI Asia Cup 2023 live on their television channel. Star Sports Network is the number one sports channel in India and the world.

India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Nepal are the Asian countries that will participate in this year’s fifty-overs event.
The much-awaited and heated contest between India and Pakistan might be played three times in this year’s event of the ODI Asia Cup 2023.
These two teams have not met in any finals of the Asia Cup tournament till now in the old history of this tournament.
The live streaming services will be free on the mobile application of Disney+ Hotstar.
One should go to the Google Play Store and download this app for free on their smartphone devices to avail of this offer.
The team of Disney+ Hotstar have announced that they will not charge a single penny from the viewers during the matches of the ODI Asia Cup 2023 and also when the ODI World Cup 2023 event will start in India.
Star Sports 1, Star Sports 1 HD, Star Sports 1 Hindi, Star Sports 1 Hindi HD, Star Sports Select 1, Star Sports, Star Sports 2, HD, Star Sports 2 HD, and Star Sports will also broadcast in Tamil apart from English and Hindi languages.
As mentioned earlier in this post, Disney+ Hotstar will be giving their paid services for free during the two main events like the ODI Asia Cup 2023 and ODI World Cup 2023 where the men in blue side will be participating.
This decision from the team of Hotstar and Star Sports Network came after they faced a loss of 12.5 million viewers during the TATA IPL 2023 season.
That happened because the JioCinema gave the live streaming services for free on their mobile app.
To compete with Jio, Hotstar has also decided to not charge anything from the viewers during the upcoming two events of the one-day international format.
