Predicting India's strongest playing XI for their Asia Cup opening match

Bowlers

Jasprit Bumrah will be the X-Factor

Jasprit Bumrah

Jasprit Burmah has become India's go-to bowler in all formats, and he is a death over specialist and has a deadly yorker. His unique action can also create problems for the opposition batsmen. He has formed one of the best fast bowling attacks along with Bhuveneshwar Kumar. He is also the ICC number 1 ODI bowler.

Yuzvendra Chahal

Yuzvendra Chahal has been an integral part of the Indian squad and has been extremely effective in the limited over matches that he has played. His ability to take wickets in the middle overs has made him into an indispensable part of the Indian squad and helped them accomplish many wins.

Kuldeep Yadav

Kuldeep Yadav along with Chahal have formed a world-class spin duo. The fact that he is a chinaman bowler makes him even more effective because most of the players have not gotten much exposure to chinaman spin and are thus fairly new to playing chinaman spin. He has troubled batsmen everywhere he goes and is also ranked number 6 in the ICC ODI rankings for bowlers.
