Asia Cup 2022: Predicting India's 15-member squad for the tournament
India won the previous two editions of the Asia Cup in 2016 and 2018.
2. KL Rahul
KL Rahul is one of the core members of the Indian team and the vice-captain of the side. The all-format opener is one of the best batters in T20Is, scoring 1,831 runs in 56 games at an average of 40.68 and a strike rate of 142.49 with two hundreds and 16 fifties.
Rahul is known for stylish technique and elegant stroke-making. He has got a range of shots and can also strike big. He can provide the required starts that the side will be looking at in the powerplays, and can also carry on until late in the innings.
Rahul, after being named as the captain for the home series against South Africa in June, suffered a groin injury and has been out of the team ever since. He was named in the squad for the West Indies tour but caught Covid-19 a few days ago. His availability for the Asia Cup is still not certain. But his presence will be key in the upcoming major tournaments for India.
