A series of tough competitions is waiting for team India in the coming days. First, is the Asia Cup starting from 27 August. The ICC T20 World Cup is also slated to be held in October this year. As both of the tournaments will be a 20-over battle, the BCCI are eyeing to build a concrete squad with the players who have shown good form in the limited-over formats in recent times. The 18-man squad for the Asia Cup has already been announced.
The second-string Indian unit, under the captaincy of KL Rahul, are now playing a three-match One Day International series against Zimbabwe, while most of the big names, including designated skipper Rohit Sharma have been given a rest. Sharma, along with head coach Rahul Dravid, is now focusing on the strategies to be taken in the upcoming tournaments. As captain, Rohit Sharma has just come out of a confident T20I series win against the West Indies. The Men in Blue outplayed the Islanders in four of the five T20Is.
