August 19, 2025 03:16 pm
Defending champions India have announced their 15-member squad for the upcoming Asia Cup in the United Arab Emirates.
Suryakumar Yadav will captain India in next month’s Asia Cup as the team looks to clinch a record-extending ninth title.
The squad features several major changes from the side that lifted last year’s ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, with the return of some big names adding further strength.
Jasprit Bumrah makes his return to India’s white-ball setup for the first time since the 2024 T20 World Cup. The pacer, who has only featured in Test cricket since last year’s T20 World Cup final, was rested from limited-overs assignments and also missed the ICC Champions Trophy due to injury.
India squad: Suryakumar Yadav (c), Shubman Gill, Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dube, Jitesh Sharma, Axar Patel, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakaravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav, Sanju Samson, Harshit Rana, Rinku Singh
