New Delhi: Shubman Gill has been appointed as the vice-captain as India announced their squad for the upcoming Asia Cup 2025 on Tuesday. Chief selector Ajit Agarkar and India’s T20I skipper Suryakumar Yadav addressed the press conference at the BCCI headquarters in Mumbai after announcing the 15-man squad for the Men in Blue.
There were doubts over Gill’s return to T20Is despite the Indian Test captain’s terrific show in the recently concluded Test series against England. However, the star batter made his comeback in the T20I setup after smashing a whopping 754 runs in the England Test series. Gill also enjoyed a stellar campaign for Gujarat Titans (GT) in the IPL 2025, amassing an impressive 650 runs in 15 matches.
India’s squad for Asia Cup 2025:
Suryakumar Yadav, Shubman Gill, Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dube, Axar Patel, Jitesh Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav, Sanju Samson, Harshit Rana, Rinku Singh, Varun Chakaravarthy
