Where To Watch Asia Cup 2025: India's T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav will face the biggest Test of captaincy so far as India enter the Asia Cup 2025 as defending champions on Wednesday. India will be up against UAE, who were recently part of a tri-series featuring Pakistan and Afghanistan. Notably, UAE finished last but attained plenty of match time, which India lacks at the moment.
For UAE, captain Mohammed Waseem and Asif Khan have displayed flashes of brilliance in the series, scoring some runs in the line-up.
When it comes to India, a set of specialist players enrich the squads, who know how to play the modern T20 game. After the departure of stalwarts like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja - the Indian team under the coaching of Gautam Gambhir has been sort of a revelation to say the least.

Starting from Abhishek Sharma to Suryakumar Yadav to Jasprit Bumrah, this side looks no less than world beaters with plenty of T20 experience in franchise and international cricket.
Although Gautam Gambhir-led team management has a challenge of choosing the perfect XI, which is likely to sustain throughout the tournament. There is also doubt on whether players Sanju Samson, Tilak Varma and Kuldeep Yadav will make the squad or not.
