Shubman Gill, India’s Test captain and top performer in the England series, is likely to miss the Asia Cup 2025 T20I squad, according to a Cricbuzz report. Despite scoring over 750 runs and excelling in IPL 2025, selectors may favor Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson for opening roles. Yashasvi Jaiswal is a strong contender for backup opener, while Tilak Varma, Rinku Singh, and Suryakumar Yadav are expected to feature. Mohammed Siraj, the top wicket-taker in the England series, may also be excluded. Jasprit Bumrah will lead the pace attack, with Hardik Pandya as the sole pace all-rounder. The final squad will be decided on August 19. (PC: Zap Cricket)
