Asia Cup 2025 Begins Soon

Asia Cup 2025: The Asia Cup 2025 is set to commence on September 9. However, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has yet to announce the Indian team. According to reports, the announcement is expected around August 19 or 20. A significant question arises regarding who will lead Team India in this tournament: Shubman Gill or Suryakumar Yadav?

Currently, Suryakumar Yadav serves as the captain of the T20 team, and under his leadership, the team's performance has been impressive. Nevertheless, he is not fully fit at the moment.

On the other hand, Shubman Gill was appointed as the captain of the Test team before the England tour, where he not only led the team but also excelled with the bat, scoring a remarkable 754 runs. The series ended in a 2-2 draw, showcasing Gill's capabilities. Therefore, it is possible that he may also take on the captaincy for the Asia Cup 2025.
