India will enter the 2026 Asian Games in Nagoya, Japan, as the reigning champions in men’s cricket after their gold medal win in the last edition of the event.
In light of the fact that the national team has a full international fixture schedule during this time period, the BCCI may opt to play with a squad consisting of both experienced players and new faces.
On Saturday, Indian selectors announced the squad for the Asian Games.
Cricket at the Asian Games will follow the T20 format this year.
