#2. Mukesh Kumar
It’s surprising for many that Mukesh Kumar was left out of India’s Asia Cup squad, especially after his impressive debut in the last series against the West Indies. He showcased his talent by taking four wickets across three ODIs, demonstrating his potential to contribute to the team’s bowling arsenal.
However, with the return of senior pacers like Mohammad Siraj and Mohammed Shami, Kumar might have faced tough competition for a spot in the final squad. However, picking Prasidh ahead of him is a little bit controversial, as Prasidh just made a comeback while he was playing for the team.
