Initially the competition was going to be held in Lahore, but due to the persistent rain, the event was moved to Karachi.[1] Once there, the competition was contested in a round-robin format with each team competing against one another. After 21 matches was played, Pakistan took out the tournament winning all six matches to become the first champions of the Asia Cup ahead of India and China who finished with the silver and bronze respectively.[2]
