India: Their team looks strong with amazing batters like Suryakumar Yadav (who’s also the captain!), Shubman Gill, and Yashasvi Jaiswal. They also have great all-rounders like Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja, and super fast bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj. Plus, they have some exciting wicket-keepers ready to go!

Pakistan: Our very own team, Pakistan, is also geared up to win! Mohammad Rizwan is leading the side and keeping wickets. We have some fantastic batters like Fakhar Zaman and Imam-ul-Haq, and our bowling attack is awesome with Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, and Naseem Shah ready to take wickets. We’ve got a good mix of experienced players and some exciting young talent.

Sri Lanka: The Sri Lankan team, captained by Charith Asalanka, has some really talented players too. Keep an eye on their batters like Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Perera, and their brilliant all-rounders like Wanindu Hasaranga. Their bowling attack also has some speedsters ready to trouble the opposition.

Bangladesh: Bangladesh, led by Najmul Hossain Shanto, is always a team that can surprise everyone. They have experienced players like Shakib Al Hasan and Mahmudullah, along with some exciting young talents. Their bowling attack has some good variety too, so they’ll be looking to make a big impact.

During the tournament, you’ll see teams playing group matches first to qualify for the “Super Four” stage. In the Super Four, the top teams will play each other, and then the two best teams from that stage will clash in the final to lift the Asia Cup trophy!
