Established in 1952 by the Ceylon Football Association as a part of the Colombo Fair, teams from India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka (formerly known as Ceylon) and Burma played each other in a round robin tournament. The tournament was last played in 1955. In 1953 it was hosted in Rangoon, Burma, in 1954 at Calcutta, India, and finally at Lahore, Pakistan.[1][2]
