Indian national side is going to begin their Asia Cup campaign with their tournament opener against United Arab Emirates (UAE) on September 10. This is going to be the first international assignment after the heroic 2-2 series draw in the Anderson-Tendulkar trophy in England.
Within the senior players, Jasprit Bumrah was one who was specially in high spirits after returning to the T20I squad since the 2024 World Cup final in Bridgetown. “It feels really good to join the T20 group after a long time. This three-week window was really good, got some time at home,” he said.
