The location of Group A games in the upcoming February window of the FIBA Asia Cup 2021 Qualifiers has been changed to Doha. The FIBA Regional Office Asia yesterday confirmed the change of the original venue - Clark, Philippines - to Qatari capital due to the extension of the travel ban imposed by the Filipino authorities. FIBA had earlier announced the change of Group B venue to Doha from Tokyo, Japan. Group E (Qatar, Iran, Syria and Saudi Arabia) matches will also take place in Doha. The qualifiers will be held from February 17-23.
