Team India is the current champion, which won the title in 2023 by defeating Sri Lanka by 10 wickets in the final. This is the reason why this time too all eyes are on India’s squad. Travel Stories
Eyes on Captaincy, Squad Selection
For some time now, different captains have been handling the responsibility according to the format in Indian cricket. Suryakumar Yadav is currently leading the T20 team, while Shubman Gill is the captain of the Test team. After registering a spectacular victory against England recently under Gill’s captaincy, it is believed that he may also get a chance in the Asia Cup T20 team. However, the final decision on this will be taken today.
Another important aspect of team selection is the balance between the fitness of experienced players and giving opportunities to emerging young players. Everyone’s eyes will be on what kind of combination the selection committee makes.

According to media reports, Ajit Agarkar’s press conference will be broadcast live on the Star Sports Network. On the digital platform, viewers will be able to watch it through JioCinema/Hotstar.
