This year's World Cup in Qatar will start a day earlier than originally scheduled with the opening ceremony now taking place before the host nation kick off the tournament on Sunday, Nov 20, against Ecuador, world governing body FIFA said on Thursday (Aug 11).
With the Asia Cup starting in just over two weeks' time, it will be a valuable opportunity for all the teams to test themselves against the best ahead of the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia. The Indian cricket team and the Pakistan cricket face each other on August 28 in a Group A match at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. The last time the two teams faced each other, at the 2021 T20 World Cup, the Babar Azam-led Pakistan beat India comprehensively. Virat Kohli was the India skipper then, but now Rohit Sharma is at the helm of the side.
Left-handed batter Ishan Kishan is one of the most dynamic batters going around in world cricket, and on his day, he can tear into the opposition's bowling lineup. However, the batter has been in and out of the team, and he has failed to make it to the Asia Cup squad. Team India have named a full-strength squad, that will see KL Rahul returning to the side as vice-captain after being sidelined due to injury. Former New Zealand all-rounder Scott Styris believes that Kishan would be disappointed on missing out for Asia Cup.
After clinching the white-ball series against West Indies, Team India is all geared up for their next assignment and that is the upcoming Asia Cup. The tournament will also mark the return of India star batter Virat Kohli on the field, as he was rested for the series against West Indies. As the Asia Cup is just around the corner, Kohli is trying to prepare to the best of his ability. In a video posted on the Instagram handle of Kohli, he was seen sweating it out in a practice session while wearing a Manchester City Jersey.
