Asia Cup 2022: Official Squad for Team India Announced

Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel set to miss as we look at the official squad list for Team India for Asia Cup 2022.

BCCI on Monday announced the official Team India’s official 15-member squad along with 3 reserves for Asia Cup 2022. The overall squad seems to be on the expected lines, but the squad will miss two key players, Harshal Patel and Jasprit Bumrah.

 It was certain that Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel would have made it to the final 15. But with Jasprit Bumrah suffering from Back Injury and Harshal Patel suffering from a Rib injury, their recovery was uncertain. 

Apart from these two important notes, Rohit Sharma will be leading the side while KL Rahul shall be his deputy. In KL Rahul’s absence, Hardik Pandya had taken the VC role. But now that KL Rahul is back, Team India realize KL Rahul to be their leader in Rohit’s absence.

So, here’s the official Team India’s squad for Asia Cup 2022. 

Asia Cup 2022: Official Squad Players List for Team India

KL Rahul, Rohit Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav, Virat Kohli, Dinesh Karthik (WK) Rishabh Pant (WK), Deepak Hooda, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Arshdeep Singh, Avesh Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ravi Bishnoi & Yuzvendra Chahal

Reserves: Shreyas Iyer, Axar Patel & Deepak Chahar

Coach: Rahul Dravid // Captain: Rohit Sharma

The loss of Harshal Patel and Jasprit Bumrah is a big blow to the Indian team. It would be interesting to see how India copes with this. In their absence, India would be hoping for Bhuvneshwar Kumar to lead the pace duties well.
