Regional body promoting cricket in Asia under ICC
The Nagoya-Aichi Asian Games are proceeding from Sept. 19 to Oct. 4 with more than 17,000 athletes from 45 countries. Officials report some venues faced rain and flooding, but organizers say the program is intact and athletes are staying in a mix of cruise-ship cabins, wooden containers and hotel rooms.
India has won the Asia Cup by beating Sri Lanka by 72 runs, marking an eighth title. The post-match ceremony was lengthy and controversial as India's team declined to receive the trophy from ACC chair Naqvi amid ongoing India-Pakistan tensions. The ceremony ended without the Indian team on stage and without individual awards.
