The Asia Cup has consistently delivered thrilling matches and memorable moments. The T20 format, introduced in 2016, amplified the excitement, aligning with the global trend toward shorter formats.
As the Asia Cup 2025 approaches on September 9th, anticipation builds regarding the Indian captain.
India has participated in the T20 Asia Cup only twice: in 2016 and 2022. Notably, only two players have captained the team in this format.
MS Dhoni led India in the inaugural T20 Asia Cup in 2016. His calm demeanor and finishing skills guided India to an undefeated run and the trophy, setting a strong precedent for India’s T20 Asia Cup journey.
Rohit Sharma assumed captaincy in 2022. Known for strategic acumen and aggressive batting, Rohit led India in a highly competitive tournament. While India did not win, his leadership significantly influenced the team’s T20 approach.
The T20 Asia Cup captaincy list for India includes just two names: MS Dhoni (2016) and Rohit Sharma (2022). With the 2025 Asia Cup looming, speculation surrounds whether Suryakumar Yadav will lead the team, or if a new captain will emerge.
From September 9th, all eyes will be on the individual chosen to lead India in this high-stakes continental competition.
