3. Kuldeep Yadav
Veteran left -arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav gets a place in India’s squad for the Asia Cup 2025, as well as some more spinners as Exer Patel and Varun Chakarwarthi.

The captain and the coach can be wooed to play all three because they bring different skills sets, but it would mean that an expert to get rid of the fast bowler.
If the defending champions play with a combination of three spinners and two fast bowlers, it will shorten India’s batting to seven numbers, and by its look, would prefer to bat until the male number eight in Blue.
In such a scenario, it will be a toss-up between Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakarwarthi as both bring similar skills on the table, and in all possibilities, it will be Varun who will pipe Kuldeep as another spinner.
In addition, Chakarwarthi has been supported by the head coach, a great deal, which will play an important role in his selected in the playing XI for the Asia Cup 2025.
Saying that Kuldeep will not be a bad option, as he can take the ball away from both left and right, which is a rare ability to be in your arsenal.
2. Sanju Samson
Sanju Samson will feel inauspicious to be left out of XI, but if we go by combining the team that is selected, then the eight-team tournament is more likely to be in the tournament.
In addition, the appointment of Shubman Gill as the vice-captain of the team for the Asia Cup 2025 has also made things difficult for Samson, who have scored three centuries as a opener in T20I cricket for India.
He is very likely to play in the middle order, as he has batted in the top three for the best part of his career so far.
Due to the above reason, it is safe to say that Samson will heat the bench for the entire tournament.
1. Rinku Singh
Rinku Singh has found himself in a peculiar position in the previous year or with its number in T20I cricket, which are not impressive.
Yes, all have numbers to see, but we should not forget the number on which Rinku Singh is a bats.
The left -handed batsman has batted at six or seven in most matches that he has played, and receive a handful of balls to make his identity, and what matters at that level, the batsman has a strike rate.
Saying that Rinku may have to sit for the entirety of the Asia Cup 2025 due to the combination of the team, as there are five appropriate batsmen and three all-rounders in India, which spreads batting up to eight numbers.
