India have unveiled a well-rounded 15-member squad for the upcoming Asia Cup 2025, featuring depth across departments and a mix of experience and emerging talent. While the selection has largely been praised for its balance, the exclusion of some notable names and the role of fringe players like Harshit Rana has sparked discussions among fans and analysts.

The bowling unit looks formidable on paper, featuring three frontline pacers, Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, and Rana, along with two specialist spinners in Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakaravarthy. The presence of all-rounders Hardik Pandya and Axar Patel further enhances India's flexibility, while Shivam Dube and Abhishek Sharma offer additional part-time options.

This configuration provides India with a variety of bowling combinations to adapt to match conditions in the UAE, where pitches tend to assist spin more than seam.
