India's Asia Cup 2025 Squad Announcement Live Updates: The Indian squad for the Asia Cup 2025 will be announced on Tuesday in Mumbai after a selection committee meeting at the BCCI headquarters. Following the meeting, BCCI chief selector Ajit Agarkar and Indian captain
Suryakumar Yadav will address the media to announce the squad.
However, the press conference has been delayed a bit due to Mumbai rains. Even, Suryakumar braved the rains to reach the BCCI headquarters. While most of the team looks set, the inclusion of
Shubman Gill and
Shreyas Iyer has been the talk of the town since the past few days.
With the batting line-up all set, will Gill and Iyer find a place in the playing or they will be named as back-ups. The good news for Indian is the availability of
Jasprit Bumrah who told the selectors that he will play. Bumrah, who played just three out of five Tests in England due to worload management, will be getting at least 40 days of rest before the
Asia Cup 2025, which starts on September 9.
