Sri Lanka is the reigning champion and would defend their title, while India and Pakistan are also favorites to win the Asia Cup 2010 title. This would be the 10th edition of Asia Cup cricket. India and Sri Lanka won the tournament 4 times each, while Pakistan won the title once. Sri Lanka defeated India in the 2008 final to bag their 4th title.

The tournament, consisting of seven matches will provide the cricket lovers in the four countries a hearty and exciting cricket. All of the 7 matches in the tournament would take place at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium in Dambulla, Sril Lanka.
