India are going to appear in the Asia Cup for the 15th time, the second most appearance in the continental tournament alongside Pakistan and Bangladesh. Since 1984, Team India has become the champions of Asia seven times, six in ODIs and one in T20I.
Amidst all the uncertainty surrounding the Asia Cup hosts, the tournament is expected to be played in August and September of this year, in the ODI format. India will take part in the multi-nation event under the leadership of Rohit Sharma, who is yet to win the big one as the national captain.
The Indian selection committee will be looking to pick players in the Asia Cup, with an eye on the ODI World Cup, which will be played at home within a month of the scheduled finish of the continental tournament. With that in mind, SportsTiger looks at the probable squad for India in the Asia Cup 2023:
Batters: Rohit Sharma (c), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav, Shikhar Dhawan
The Indian captain Rohit Sharma has been quite consistent as a batter in the ODI format, but he hasn’t got many three figure scores in the format, just like the former captain Virat Kohli. Shubman Gill is the most in-form player in 50-over cricket for Team India, during the past one year or so, putting together hundreds against various opponents for fun.
Suryakumar Yadav, who got three consecutive ducks in the last ODI series against Australia, has been batting incredibly well in white-ball cricket elsewhere, which will make him one of the major candidates for the Asia Cup squad. Shreyas Iyer is expected to return to cricket from an injury before the continental tournament, which would mean that he is bound to get drafted into the India set up straight away, otherwise Shikhar Dhawan is the next best option for the selectors to rely on.
