All three of Asia’s most powerful teams will enter the Asia Cup without their main fast bowlers.

The Indian team was crowned as the winner for the most number of times in the history of the Asia Cup so far. Also, the team that has represented the finals the most times and has the second most wins is the Sri Lankan team. While Pakistan claimed the title twice, apart from these three teams, no other Asian team could be crowned champions.

In this tournament, all the three teams Sri Lanka, India and Pakistan have to enter the tournament without their main fast bowler. Jasprit Bumrah was a crucial factor for the Indian team. The bowling line-up has been seen relying heavily on this senior player in the limited overs format.

“Jasprit Bumrah has a back injury and will not play in the Asia Cup. He is our main bowler and we would like him to play again before the T20 World Cup. “We can’t risk him in the Asia Cup and the injury might get worse,” a senior BCCI official told the media.

Shaheen Afridi quickly became the savior of the Pakistan team, creating a rapid growth in all three formats of the competition. He was constantly in a good rhythm and the main factor that kept him between the wickets was his ability to adapt to any format in a short period of time.

Shaheen’s knee injury has left Pakistan without its premier fast bowler and will be replaced by Hasan Ali, according to Pakistani media.

“Shaheen is our best bowler. So we will really miss him. It is unfortunate that he did not make it to the Asia Cup. But we hope he will be available for the upcoming tournament and the World Cup. We have to play ruthless cricket. against any team.” Pakistan vice-captain Shadab Khan had mentioned this to the media while commenting on Shaheen’s injury.

In the last two years, a bowler with better swing and pace was found for the Sri Lankan team who can bowl in any situation. Chamira continued to be plagued by injuries and he again showed a very successful style of play from his second appearance.

However, when Sri Lanka named its squad for the Asia Cup, Chamira was included in it, but he will miss the Asia Cup tournament which is scheduled to start on the 27th due to the fact that the ankle injury that he suffered earlier has not yet healed. He has been recommended a two-week rest period.

Accordingly, the three most dominant teams in the history of the Asia Cup will enter the Asia Cup tournament without their main fast bowlers this time.
