With Shubman Gill, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Abhishek Sharma likely to be picked for the Asia Cup, the question is whether Sai Sudharsan will be picked. Though the reports suggested that the selectors are looking at Sudharsan, who was the Orange Cap winner of the last IPL season, as a back-up option, will the selectors take a bold call by rewarding him with his consistent performance in IPL 2025?
In case Jaiswal is picked, he is likely to open alongside Abhishek Sharma, and Shubman Gill is likely to bat No.3, leaving a potential vacancy in the middle-order. Since Sudharsan is a top-order batter, will selectors trust him to adjust the middle-order role or instead opt for someone more established in that position?
