Asia Cup 2023 is to be organized in Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Team India's squad has been announced for this tournament. 17 players have been included in this team. Team India was announced by BCCI chief selector Ajit Agarkar and captain Rohit Sharma through a press conference. The Asia Cup will be played from August 30 to September 17. In the tournament, Team India has to play its first match against arch-rivals Pakistan on 2 September in Kandy. Let us tell you that this year's Asia Cup will be played in ODI format. In Team India's squad, a player has been given a chance who has not yet made his ODI debut. Because of which a lot of questions are being raised on team selection.
This player was selected without debut
When Team India was announced for the Asia Cup 2023, everyone was surprised to see Tilak Verma's name in it. Tilak Verma is currently playing T20 series against Ireland. But the thing to note is that Tilak Verma has not yet made his debut in ODI cricket. At the same time, he has experience of only 7 matches in T20. In such a situation, taking him for the Asia Cup can harm Team India and his career.
Tilak Verma recently made his debut during the T20 series played against the West Indies. Where he scored 173 runs in five matches impressing everyone with his brilliant batting. But it cannot mean that a player should be selected in Team India's Asia Cup squad on the basis of his performance in only 5 matches. Tilak Verma has been able to score only 1 run in two matches in the series being played against Ireland.

Rohit Sharma (Captain), Shubman Gill Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Verma, Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya (Vice Captain), Ravindra Jadeja, Akshar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami, Mohammed Siraj , Kuldeep Yadav and the Prasidh Krishna.
