Asian Cup 2023: Happy news is coming for the Indian cricket team. According to information received from the media, Shreyas Iyer has started practicing batting once again. Iyer could not play two matches against Pakistan and Sri Lanka due to back spasms. India’s next match in the Asia Cup is with Bangladesh. If Iyer becomes fully fit, he may get a place in the playing eleven against Bangladesh. Iyer’s injury after playing against Pakistan in the first match had increased everyone’s concerns. Iyer is an important player for the Indian team as he is the number four batsman in the ODI team. Only five ODI matches are left for India before the World Cup. In such a situation, the Indian team management would like to give maximum opportunities to Iyer.
Everyone practiced except Bumrah, Kohli and Rohit
Due to playing consecutive matches, the Indian cricket team participated in only one practice session on Thursday. India has already reached the final in the Asia Cup. This is the reason why Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah and captain Rohit Sharma did not participate in the practice session. Apart from Shreyas Iyer, Shardul Thakur, Suryakumar Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja and Tilak Verma also took part in this exercise.
Indian team reached Asia Cup final for the 10th time.
By defeating Sri Lanka, the Indian team has made it to the finals of the Asia Cup for the 10th time. Indian captain Rohit Sharma looked very happy while talking to the media after the victory. He has described Hardik as the biggest and real hero of Team India’s victory. Rohit Sharma said that the credit for this victory goes to the Indian bowlers. If Shreyas Iyer is fully fit, India may try him at No. 3 to give him more playing time.
