The challenging job role for the Indian selection committee will come in a week when the selectors will gather once more to choose the team for the Asia Cup and the same squad would be picked for ICC World T20 2022 as per the report. They picked the squad for Zimbabwe on the 30th of June. The announcement of the Asia Cup squad must be made before August 8th.
Same Squad For Asia Cup 2022 and ICC World T20 2022- Reports
Except for injury-related unforeseen situations, it is quite possible to say with some degree of certainty that the side selected for the Asia Cup will be almost the same as the one that will fly to Australia for the Twenty World Cup 2022. The six T20I games against Australia and South Africa in September and October will also feature the same group of players. Before the World Cup, the selectors would look to provide the team management with a suitable number of games to work with.

It is almost sure that Virat Kohli, Jasprit Bumrah, and KL Rahul will all be available for the Asia Cup. Due to family and medical issues, the three are currently absent from the T20I team playing in the West Indies.
The contenders for the ICC World Cup T20 2022 currently have exactly 4 more clashes left against the West Indies until the selectors decide on their squad for the Asia Cup on August 8. The 5 match series, which concludes on August 7 in Florida, US, has India up 1-0.
The likes of Deepak Hooda, Rishabh Pant, Arshdeep Singh, and other teammates on the fringe will be looking to make it count worthy against the West Indies.
