Reflexes

  • Many players do not have a place in Team India of Asia Cup 2022
  • There is not a single left-handed batsman in the top order of the India team.
  • Shikhar Dhawan not included in the Asian Cup squad

Asian Cup 2022 Team India: After the India vs West Indies series, now the next mission of the India team will be the Asian Cup 2022. However, before this, the India team also has to go on a tour of Zimbabwe. But this series doesn’t seem to have much meaning. Many veteran players will also rest in this series. Also, this one-day series and there won’t be a big one-day tournament this year, so it will attract a lot of attention, it’s hard to say. Meanwhile, the Indian team for the Asian Cup has been announced, many legendary players have returned to the team, but there is one player who does not have a place in the team this time either. It is sure that the India team will definitely miss the lack of such a player in the Asian Cup. We are talking about the left-handed starter Shikhar Dhawan. Shikhar Dhawan once again failed to make it to the Indian T20 team. Two starters have been kept in the team, one is captain Rohit Sharma himself and the other is KL Rahul. Even the backup opener is not taken.

india vs pakistan match in t20 world cup 2021

Remember the India vs Pakistan match of the T20 World Cup 2021. When the Indian team came out to bat, Pakistan’s left arm fast pitcher Shaheen Shah Afridi had scattered India’s top order. One of the reasons for this was that the entire top order of India was full of right-handed batsmen. Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Surya Kumar Yadav were righties. There was no left-handed hitter who could match Shaheen Afridi. This time too, it’s largely the same team for the Asian Cup and Pakistan’s left-arm bowler up front. Even at that time it was said that if Shikhar Dhawan had been there, he could have faced Afridi. But he wasn’t on the team. The special thing is that the team that has been selected for the Asian Cup has only two left-handed batsmen. One wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant and the other all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja. They both come pretty low in the batting order. It would have been better if a player was left-handed also in the higher order.

Shikhar Dhawan is playing solo on One Day for Team India

Shikhar Dhawan is now running out of Test team and T20 team India. Since the great players rest in ODI, they come to the team and also become the captain. Against the West Indies we also saw how he was named captain of the ODI team and under his captaincy, Team India performed well and cleaned out the West Indies in the series. Although Shikhar Dhawan may not be able to play for the India team, he plays every year in IPL and performs well too. In IPL 2022 he also played for Punjab Kings and also won matches for his team.
