Asia Cup 2025 / This pair will be seen together for the first time for Team India, their friendship is 7 years old

Asia Cup 2025: The Indian cricket team has been announced for the Asia Cup, and with this the phase of preparations is about to begin. Soon Team India will leave for Dubai, where it will start its campaign in this prestigious tournament. The special thing this time is that for the first time a pair will take the field, whose friendship is seven years old. This pair is of Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma, who have been playing together since Under-19 cricket and are now preparing to open together in the senior Indian team.

Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma: New opening pair

Although India's opening pair for the Asia Cup has not been officially decided yet, there is a buzz in cricket circles that Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma can open the innings in T20 Internationals. If this happens, this will be the first time that this pair will open together for the senior Indian team. Both the players have previously played together in the 2018 Under-19 World Cup, where the foundation of their friendship was laid. This friendship is now going to reach a new height after seven years, when both of them will open the batting for India in the Asia Cup.

Yuvraj Singh's guidance

Former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh has played an important role in the success of Shubhman Gill and Abhishek Sharma. Yuvraj not only helped both these players to improve technically, but also always kept an eye on their performance. On social media, Yuvraj often criticizes and praises the game of both of them, although his criticism is always with a view to improvement. Yuvraj's advice and inspiration have played an important role in taking both the players to this point.

Friendship and test of the game

Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma have played many matches for the Indian team, but their partnership in the Asia Cup will be a new challenge. Abhishek Sharma is known for his aggressive and flamboyant batting, while Shubman Gill is adept at playing restrained and technical batting according to the circumstances. The different styles of these two and their mutual understanding on the field will be worth watching in this tournament. This pair will grab the attention of the audience not only with their batting but also with the chemistry of their seven-year-old friendship.

Challenges and expectations in Asia Cup

The Indian team will have to face many strong teams in the Asia Cup, and this new opening pair will have the responsibility of giving a good start. If the pair of Shubman and Abhishek catch their rhythm, then it can give a new strength to the Indian batting. Fans hope that this pair will not only make a blast with the bat on the field, but will also set an example with their friendship and coordination.
