BCCI can announce India squad for Asia Cup 2023 today: The Indian team has begun getting ready for the ODI World Cup 2023, which will take place in October and November. However, the team must first compete in the 2023 Asia Cup. On August 30, the Asia Cup will get underway. Pakistan and Nepal will square off in the opening game in Multan. While the final game will take place on September 17.
After Bangladesh and Pakistan, Nepal has also revealed its roster for the Asia Cup. Now that Rohit Sharma will serve as captain, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) can also reveal its lineup today, August 15.
This time, a hybrid model will be used to hold the Asia Cup. Only four of the tournament’s matches will be played in Pakistan, with the remaining nine taking place in Sri Lanka. On September 2, the Indian team will face Pakistan in Kandy, Sri Lanka, in its inaugural game.
In Group-A of the Asia Cup, India, Pakistan, and Nepal are all teammates. The Indian team will play a total of 6 matches in the tournament if it advances to the final. The Asia Cup is being played in ODI format this time. It would be advantageous for the team to play so many games in this situation in terms of the World Cup.
