India’s first true training session on Friday in Alur have a peak into their plans for the tournament opener against Pakistan next month.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Indian cricket team, bound to leave for Sri Lanka for the Asia Cup tournament on August 30, assembled at at the Karnataka State Cricket Association’s (KSCA) Three Ovals campus in Alur on Thursday for a six-day camp in preparation for the continental event which will be followed by the ODI World Cup at home. One of the main questions heading into the two big tournaments has been India’s batting order. With the likes of KL Rahul and\u00a0Shreyas Iyer<\/a>\u00a0making a return to the side following a long injury layoff, and amid the rising call for\u00a0Virat Kohli<\/a>\u00a0to play at No.4 from Ravi Shastri and\u00a0AB de Villiers<\/a>, the batting order for the Asia Cup remains one of the major questions. But India’s first true training session on Friday in Alur have a peak into their plans for the tournament opener against Pakistan next month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the notable highlights of India’s Asia Cup squad announcement has been the inclusion of Rahul and Iyer. Rahul was been out of action since May when he had incurred a hamstring injury during IPL 2023 and had to later undergo a surgery. Iyer has been on the sidelines since March this year with a lower back injury and had to go under the knife.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHaving proven their fitness through practice matches at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru where they have been recovering for a while, the pair have been picked for the Asia Cup. But what will the batting order look for India now as they head to Asia Cup?<\/h6>\n\n\n\n
