[WATCH] Team India Land In Dubai As India Gears Up For Asia Cup 2025

Team India’s preparations for the 2025 Asia Cup are underway, with players starting to arrive in Dubai in groups. The tournament begins on September 9, with Suryakumar Yadav’s men drawn in Group A alongside hosts UAE, Pakistan, and Oman. Group B will see Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, and Hong Kong battle it out.

In a departure from the usual routine, the Indian squad did not gather in Mumbai before departure. Instead, members are flying separately and joining the team directly in Dubai. The first group to land featured captain Suryakumar Yadav, all-rounder Shivam Dube, and batting coach Sitanshu Kotak.

Soon after, Harshit Rana, Kuldeep Yadav, Rinku Singh, and Abhishek Sharma arrived as part of the second batch. You can watch the video here:
