Asia Cup 2023 is slated to begin later this month, and India is a strong squad in the event. India is in Group A with Pakistan and Nepal during the competition.
On September 2, the men in blue will play their first game against Pakistan. Rohit Sharma is India's one-day international captain and is slated to lead the side in the Asia Cup in 2023. In this article, we will look at India's likely squad for the Asia Cup 2023.
Players Position
Rohit Sharma (C) Opener
Shubman Gill Opener
Virat Kohli Middle Order Batter
Suryakumar Yadav Middle Order Batter
Sanju Samson (WK) Wicketkeeper
Ishan Kishan (WK) Wicketkeeper
Hardik Pandya (VC) All Rounder
Ravindra Jadeja All Rounder
Axar Patel All Rounder
Kuldeep Yadav Spinner
Yuzvendra Chahal Spinner
Shardul Thakur All Rounder
Jasprit Bumrah Pacer
Mohammed Shami Pacer
Mohammed Siraj Pacer
Rohit Sharma will captain the blue team, and he will most likely be seen alongside Shubman Gill as the team's openers in the Asia Cup 2023 roster. Shubman Gill is the team's leading run-scorer in ODIs in 2023.
The middle order is likely to be filled by Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli. Kohli has been in excellent form in 2023, with many hundreds and match-winning knocks. Yadav has struggled in ODIs but is a force in T20Is. Since he has played several ODIs for India this year, selectors may choose him to replace Iyer in the Asia Cup.
Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, and Axar Patel are India's top all-rounders for the Asia Cup 2023.
Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav will be India's spinners at the Asia Cup 2023. Yadav is the leading ODI wicket-taker in 2023. As a result, he is quite likely to be a member of the squad in the tournament.
Chahal can also join the squad. He has been a frequent spinner for India in recent years. In many T20Is and ODIs this year, the right-arm spinner performed admirably.
India might go on with four pacers in the Asia Cup 2023, as Bumrah is scheduled to return in the T20I series. He will be an important player for the team. This year, Shami and Siraj have proved to be outstanding in ODIs.
While Siraj has been the most effective against pacers, Shami has taken scalps in practically every game. Shardul Thakur, who has excelled on Indian soil, might be enrolled as another pacer.
