Schedule Released for Asia Cup 2023
The timetable for the Asia Cup 2023 has been published, with India set to open the tournament against their arch-rival Pakistan. Yet, the Men in Blue can be expected to play Pakistan three times within a span of 15 days. Moreover, if India makes it to the final, the Indian Cricket Team will have to take part in six ODI matches in a period of two weeks.
Injury Concerns
This will be a tough task for the team, given the injury worries and the upcoming ICC World Cup 2023, which will begin in October. A single injury to any participant could be detrimental not only for the individual, but also for the Indian team as a whole.
BCCI Selection Committee and NCA Medical Staff
It is here that the BCCI Selection Committee and the medical staff of the National Cricket Academy (NCA) must be particularly careful. With key players such as Jasprith Bumrah, KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, and Rishabh Pant on the sidelines, Rahul David’s team cannot take any chances.
Conclusion
The Asia Cup 2023 will be a challenging tournament for the Indian team, with the risk of injuries and the pressure of the upcoming ICC World Cup 2023. The BCCI Selection Committee and the medical staff of the NCA must be vigilant in order to ensure the team’s success.
