Who will be out, who will get entry? Many such questions must be arising in the minds of
indian fans regarding Asia Cup 2025. The
indian squad (Asia Cup
india Squad Announcement Date) will be announced on Tuesday, but the curiosity for the squad is at its peak. There is doubt on whether
jasprit bumrah will play or not. Meanwhile, this update also came that
bumrah can now be seen playing directly in the Test series against West Indies.
indian legend
sunil gavaskar did not like this at all.
Strong message to selectors
Sunil Gavaskar has given a strong message to the selectors through a column written for a newspaper. He wrote, "There is no such player without whom the work cannot be done. Therefore, the selectors will have to decide now whether to play
jasprit bumrah or not. There has already been a lot of debate on
bumrah in the recently concluded
england series." Gavaskar also said that India's next Test is in
october and even if
bumrah played in the Oval Test, he would have had 2 months to rest. Still the team management gave him rest. Actually, Gavaskar seemed annoyed with the fact that despite having 2 months to rest,
bumrah was not played in the Oval Test.
Gave important advice
Sunil Gavaskar gave another important advice to the selectors and wrote that Test
cricket should be made the primary format for Bumrah. He wrote, "Now the selectors have to decide what is more important. Is
qualification for the World Test
championship final more important or playing in a bilateral white ball series, which will not have any significant impact. If
india has to do well in the WTC, then
jasprit bumrah should always be the lead bowler and he should play all four Test matches to be held during October-November."
Also praised for some decisions
This great
indian batsman praised the selectors and said that in the last few series, many bold decisions have been taken regarding squad selection, which have also yielded good results.
sunil gavaskar also said that when it comes to choosing the final-11, the decision should be completely in the hands of the team management.
