The 15th edition of the Asia Cup is going to start on 27 August 2022. However, India will kick off their campaign on 28 August 2022 against arch-rivals Pakistan. Apart from Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and Sri Lanka are the other teams that are participating. The sixth team will qualify after winning the qualifiers.
India has won this tournament the most number of times (7). Even, they will start as the defending champion also. Based on the announced squad, India will start as favourites to lift this trophy once again. But, there are several players who can produce threats against India’s Asia Cup dreams.
Here are the five players who can shatter India’s Asia Cup Hopes in 2022:
Babar Azam
The Pakistan skipper can be the biggest threat ever to India’s Asia Cup hopes this time around. Babar Azam has been enjoying a great run with the bat, especially in the white-ball formats. Currently, he is the number one ranked batter in both the ODI and T20I formats. Hence, he will look to win this major title this year for his country.
His partnership with Rizwan was the reason why India lost the last match in the T20 World Cup 2021 by 10 wickets. Speaking about his numbers, in T20Is, Babar Azam has played 74 matches where he has scored 2686 runs, at an average of 45.52. Therefore, Indian bowlers need to work hard to get the wicket of this star batter.
