Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, Deepak Hooda, Dinesh Karthik, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Yujvendra Sahal, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan have also been given a chance in the team. Also Shreyas Iyer, Axar Patel, Deepak Sahar are the backup players.
Flaws in bowling:
Bhuvneshwar Kumar is the only experienced player in this team. While there are experienced players like Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj, young fast bowlers Arshdeep Singh and Avesh Khan have been included. In this, Arshdeep Singh has also been amazing in recent times. However, Avesh Khan’s performance was not that satisfactory.
Many people are saying that a senior bowler should have been added to replace the senior bowler Bumrah, who was out due to injury, and that should have given place to Mohammed Shami, who performed well in the 15th season of IPL.
Bud interview:
In this case, Salman Bhatt, the former player of the Pakistan team, who has given an interview to a newspaper, said that it was a good decision not to include Mohammed Shami. “Team selection is not just about the talent of the players. The team selection will also be based on where the matches are held and whether he can perform well there. “Mohammed Shami has never done well at the Ameera grounds.”
“Let it be the T20 World Cup held in the UAE last year, let it be the IPL series held in the UAE. Mohammed Shami did not make a big impact in this. This is why he was not included. Bhuvneshwar Kumar is the only senior bowler in the Indian squad for the Asia Cup. Other young bowlers have excelled at the Amir Stadium. According to me, India’s choice of fast bowlers is correct.
