Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul have been selected to represent India in the forthcoming Asia Cup, which is set to take place in Sri Lanka. These two batsmen had been undergoing recovery from extended injuries, which had kept them away from the field for a significant duration.
Their return to the squad is particularly encouraging for India, given the impending World Cup that is less than two months away. Additionally, Tilak Varma, who made a strong impression during his debut on the international stage in the West Indies, has also earned a spot in the selected squad.
Jasprit Bumrah, who marked his highly anticipated return during the Ireland matches, will be at the forefront of the pace bowling attack.
This unit also includes the likes of Mohammad Shami, Mohammad Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, and the versatile bowling allrounder Shardul Thakur.
Squad: Rohit Sharma (C), Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Tilak Varma, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya (VC), Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammad Siraj, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammad Shami, Prasidh Krishna, Sanju Samson (backup)
