In the Super-4 of Asia Cup 2022, Team India is on the verge of being eliminated from the tournament after losing both its opening matches. In the first match, he had to face defeat by 5 wickets at the hands of Pakistan. At the same time, in the second match, Sri Lanka defeated him by 6 wickets. After these back-to-back defeats, questions are being raised about the squad of Team India selected for the Asia Cup. Former India coach Ravi Shastri has also raised questions on the selection of this 15-member team. He has said that there should have been another fast bowler in this squad.
Significantly, for the Asia Cup, India had given place to only three fast bowlers in its squad. Hardik Pandya was in the role of the fourth fast bowler here. When Avesh Khan fell ill, only two fast bowlers (Bhuvi and Arshdeep) were left on the team. Ravi Shastri spoke about this in the post-match show of Star Sports.
Ravi Shastri said, 'When you need to win, you have to prepare better. I think the team selection could have been a little better. Especially with regard to fast bowlers. You know the conditions here. Not much happens here for the spinners. I am very surprised that you came here with only four fast bowlers (including Hardik Pandya). You needed one more. A bowler like Mohammed Shami, who is sitting at home cooling his ankles, should have been here.
Shami did a strong performance in IPL 2022
Mohammed Shami bowled brilliantly in IPL 2022. He took wickets continuously with the new ball. He was instrumental in making the Gujarat Titans champion. When Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel were injured before the Asia Cup, it was believed that Shami would get a place in the Indian squad but it did not happen.
