Asian Games 2023: India's strongest predicted XI
These players will form India's best XI in the upcoming Asian Games 2022 to be conducted in Hangzhou.
4. Tilak Varma
Tilak Varma did an excellent job for Mumbai Indians (MI) in the last two IPL seasons (2022 and 2023). In 2022, he made his IPL debut in style, scoring 397 runs in 14 matches at a strike rate of 131.02, while in 2023, he racked up 343 runs in 11 games at a marvellous strike rate of 164.11.
Considering his good work in the league, the selectors picked him up for Asian Games 2022 and now, he will have to produce effective knocks in the tournament if he gets a chance to play matches. Varma’s performance in T20 cricket is exceptional for more than one year as his batting numbers in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT) 2022-23 are also corroborating.
Playing seven matches of SMAT 2022-23, he scored 297 runs for Hyderabad in six innings at a strike rate of 136.23. Noting his form, it could be said that he will be a perfect batter to reinforce India in the middle order in the competition.
