"They Can Beat Indian Team...": Shane Watson On Rohit Sharma-led Side's Biggest Hurdle In Asia Cup

The Asia Cup 2022 will see arch-rivals Indian cricket team and Pakistan cricket team facing each other on August 28. Every time these two teams face off on the cricket field, the focus and scrutiny on the match is intense.

Virat Kohli was the captain of the Indian side then, whereas Rohit Sharma is the skipper now.

The preparations are on full swing for all the top cricket teams around the world ahead of the 2022 T20 World Cup.

Bishan Singh Bedi used to tell me the more you bowl in the nets the better you become, I think Arshdeep Singh has done that: Maninder Singh

Exceptionally talented batters and supremely gifted spinners were the USP of Indian cricket for decades. Now, quality fast bowlers, attacking as a pack has added more teeth to Indian cricket's bite. But there's one search that is still very much on in that department - the search for a quality left-arm pace bowler who can cement his place in the side, across formats. Indian cricket hasn't found anyone to fit into that role on a long term basis after the likes of Zaheer Khan, Ashish Nehra and Irfan Pathan.

"He Won't Give You Too Many Wickets": Former India Batter On Ravindra Jadeja

Former India batter Aakash Chopra feels Ravindra Jadeja won't be a potent wicket-taker for the team during the T20 World Cup. Jadeja is a part of India's 15-member squad for the upcoming Asia Cup, and is likely to feature at the T20 World Cup. While analysing India's spin-bowling options for the T20 World Cup, Chopra said that Jadeja is a "complete package" and will surely be in the playing XI. However, Chopra said that the all-rounder will struggle to take wickets at the marquee event in Australia later this year.

India's 15-member squad for the August 27-September 11 Asia Cup had many top stars like Virat Kohli and KL Rahul returning after a gap, while there were some notable omissions too. Jasprit Bumrah missed out due to injury, and another big name who was missing was left-handed opener Ishan Kishan. The big-hitting youngster has been a constant in the Indian team in recent times. However, the re-entry of opener Rahul and the presence of several other top-order options, meant that Kishan was not picked. He was not even named among the three standbys.

Sanjay Manjrekar Explains Why "Avesh Is Slightly Behind" Arshdeep In T20 WC Race

With the announcement of India's Asia Cup T20I squad, there is enough indication about the players who will be closely watched going into the T20 World Cup. With fast bowling spearhead Jasprit Bumrah missing the Asia Cup due to injury, the Indian pace bowling will be manned by Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan. While the experienced Bhuvneshwar is almost a certainty for the T20 World Cup squad, the latter two would be expected to give good performances to push their case of making it to the squad for showpiece event. Former Indian cricket team player Sanjay Manjrekar has now given his opinion on the two young pacers, who come with different skillsets.
