Five players that selectors may bench for the 2025 Asia Cup

1. Yashasvi Jaiswal

Topping the list is Team India’s young opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, who scored plenty of runs on the England tour. Meanwhile, he had also performed brilliantly in IPL 2025, but Yashasvi hardly got a place in the squad in the Asia Cup as India has an opening pair in the form of Abhishek-Samson for the opener.

2. Rishabh Pant

Team India wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant fractured his leg on the England tour, which will keep him out of cricket for at least 6 weeks. In other words, Pant will not be in the Indian team for the Asia Cup.

3. Rinku Singh

Third on the list is Rinku Singh, who could be dropped from the Indian squad for the Asia Cup. The left-handed batsman may get a chance to play against Australia for India-A. In 2024, Rinku last scored a half-century against Bangladesh in October.

4. KL Rahul

India’s top pick for the Asia Cup wicketkeeping position will be Sanju Samson.. Jitesh Sharma and Dhruv Jurel could be part of the squad as backups. In such a situation, KL Rahul is finding it difficult to get a place in the Indian team.

5. Dhruv Jurel

The opportunity Dhruv Jurel got in the Indian team for the Asia Cup looks difficult, as the first choice for wicketkeeper will be Sanju Samson, while Jitesh Sharma is also there as the second option.
