The Indian cricket team, under the leadership of Suryakumar Yadav, is preparing for the 2025 Asia Cup. The squad of 15 players will converge in Dubai on September 4, before the tournament’s commencement on September 9. A change in tradition sees the players flying to Dubai from their home cities, bypassing an initial assembly in Mumbai. This strategic shift, according to sources, prioritizes player convenience and streamlined logistics. The team is scheduled to conduct its first net practice on September 5 at the ICC Academy. India will begin their Asia Cup campaign against the UAE on September 10, followed by a high-profile match against Pakistan on September 14, both taking place in Dubai. The group stage concludes with a match against Oman on September 19, setting the stage for the Super Four phase. Some team members are currently involved in domestic cricket. Standby players will not be traveling with the main squad. India is aiming for a strong performance in Dubai, hoping this approach will contribute to a successful Asia Cup run.
