The next goal of the Indian cricket team is to win the Asia Cup, for which the BCCI has announced Team India on Tuesday. The team has 7 players left handers, the team has 3 all -rounders players. Batting and bowling unit also looks great. Shubman Gill has been elected vice -captain, Jaspreet Bumrah is also included in the team. Although some fans are angry with Shreyas Iyer and many big players, but despite this, this team is a strong contender to win the title.
India’s first match is with the UAE on 10 September, followed by 14 with Pakistan and then the last match of the group stage with Oman on 19 September. India will easily reach Super 4 of the Asia Cup, where it will get a challenge from one of the best 2 teams of its group and the best 2 teams of its group. The second group has teams from Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Hong Kong. Let’s once look at 15 players selected in Team India’s squad.
7 left handers in Indian team
There are 7 players in the Asia Cup squad who are left handers. They are Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Verma, Rinku Singh, Akshar Patel, Shivam Dubey, Arshdeep Singh and Kuldeep Yadav. Out of these, 4 players will play at least in India’s playing 11. Explosive batsman Abhishek Sharma is set to play, he specializes in setting big hits with the first ball. Akshar Patel can also play in almost every match, he also bats well with bowling and is also amazing in fielding.
With Shubman Gill coming back, he can open with Abhishek Sharma, in such a situation, Sanju Samson can handle the middle order. Tilak Verma can play at number three, he is also left handers and can do well on UAE pitches.
Left handers can benefit on Dubai pitch
The initial 2 matches of the group stage will be played at the Bharat Dubai International Cricket Stadium, including the India Pakistan match to be held on 14 September. Dubai’s pitch is helpful for spinners, the Indian team has good spinners in the form of Akshar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Varun Chakraborty. Although left handers play well against spinners here, that is why it is also a good thing to have so much latency in the team.
Spinners get a lot of turn in Dubai, it is not easy to score runs here and batsmen get trapped here but left -handed batsmen can spoil the line length of spinners here. Tilak Verma, Abhishek Sharma, Rinku Singh, Shivam Dubey are great batsmen, while Akshar Patel also bat well.
