The Asia Cup 2025 is set to start on September 9 in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). When the schedule and the venues were announced last year, India was the hosting nation. Moreover, they are also the defending champions. However, due to the ongoing political tensions between India and Pakistan, the tournament was shifted to the UAE. The enthusiasm among the fans is quite high since the tournament will be filled with fun and excitement. This time, there are eight teams that are going to participate in the Asia Cup, so the number of matches will be more.

IND vs OMN Asia Cup Playing 11 (Probable)
As the Indian selectors declared the squad for the Asia Cup 2025, there were a few surprises that invited backlash from fans and cricket pundits throughout the nation. One of the best batsmen in the world, Shubman Gill, who last played a T20I match in 2024, was included in the team as the vice-captain. While the decision seemed fair because of his IPL 2025 and Test series performance against England, picking him up ahead of Yashasvi Jaiswal was the main reason behind the outrage. Moreover, including one of the best bowlers in the world, Jasprit Bumrah, in the squad, despite having the workload crisis, was something that didn't sit well with the audience as well. Let's take a look at the probable playing XI of India ahead of the Asia Cup 2025.
Abhishek Sharma, Sanju Samson (WK), Shubman Gill (VC), Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav (C), Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana.
Oman played their last T20I match against the USA in February 2025. Both teams played a 3-match T20I series, where the USA, being the visitors, cleaned up Oman with their terrific batting and bowling attack. With Oman's inexperienced side, they looked weak in front of the USA team since they had played in many international tournaments earlier. It was a series whitewash for the visitors, becoming a memorable journey for the team. That being said, let's discuss the playing XI of Oman.
Jatinder Singh (C), Aamir Kaleem, Imran Ali, Hammad Mirza, Jitenkumar Ramanandi, Mohammad Nadeem, Vinayak Shukla, Shakeel Ahmed, Samay Shrivastava, Imran Muhammed, Mohammad Shah
