The anticipation for India's Asia Cup 2025 squad announcement is increasing with every passing day.

The Ajit Agarkar-led BCCI selection committee is set to meet in Mumbai on August 19 to pick the team for the continental event.

As per a report in Cricbuzz, three bold decisions are expected to be made by the selection committee in the meeting.

BCCI [{ "selector": ".rfsru-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".uaarl-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 467px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".abuko-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

1. Shubman Gill's snub

As per the report, the selection committee sees the pairing of Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson as the preferred opening partners.

BCCI [{ "selector": ".elmtx-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".mqras-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 449px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".jzxrc-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

Apart from this, they also prefer Yashasvi Jaiswal as a better No 3 option than Gill.

BCCI [{ "selector": ".rsgmd-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".ofitm-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 473px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".uzpce-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

2. No place for Mohammed Siraj

Despite being India's top wicket-taker on the tour of England, Siraj is likely to be snubbed for the Asia Cup.

BCCI [{ "selector": ".xbpti-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".abkfk-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 456px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".cjoms-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

With Jasprit Bumrah likely to be picked for the Asia Cup despite his recent struggles with fitness, Siraj's selection becomes difficult.

BCCI [{ "selector": ".nudad-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".tbbar-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 473px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".ladfi-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

3. No change for Shreyas Iyer

Despite showing exemplary promise with the bat in the middle-order in the IPL, Shreyas might have to miss out on T20I selection again.

BCCI [{ "selector": ".nktef-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".tbjzp-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 449px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".fstmb-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]

Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav, and Rinku Singh are reportedly sure-shot selections in the middle-order.

BCCI [{ "selector": ".qxrii-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateX(-364.44295302013415px)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible" }, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateX(0)", "opacity": "88%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".pdepg-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 473px))", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }, { "selector": ".zjrox-a", "duration": "1000ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0, "visibility" :"visible"}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "50%", "visibility" :"visible"} ] }]
