The Asia Cup 2025 is set to be played from September 9 to 28 in the T20I format across Dubai and Abu Dhabi. India last played a T20I series earlier this year, defeating England 4-1 at home. Notably, Team India's new Test captain, Shubman Gill, is set to return to the T20I lineup for the upcoming tournament.
Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson, Suryakumar, Tilak Varma, and Hardik Pandya are likely to retain their places in the T20I squad. Sharma recently topped the ICC T20 batting rankings, while Samson impressed with the bat in the format.
"Abhishek Sharma is world's No. 1 T20 batter in last ICC rankings. Sanju Samson has been fantastic last season with both bat and gloves. So it will certainly be a tough call but Shubman in current form (although in Tests) can't be ignored. He had a good IPL also. Problem for selectors is, there are too many performers at the top of the order," a BCCI source privy to developments told PTI.

Sanju Samson is almost certain to be the first-choice keeper, with Dhruv Jurel, who played in the last T20I series, and Jitesh Sharma, who impressed as RCB’s finisher during their IPL title run, competing for the backup role.
For the pace attack, Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh will be the first choice, with Prasidh Krishna, who took 25 wickets in the last IPL, and Harshit Rana competing for the third seamer’s role.
