When Is Team India’s Next Match In Asia Cup 2023?

With a crushing victory over Nepal in their Group A match on Monday (September 4), the Rohit Sharma-captained Indian cricket team secured a spot in the Super 4 stage. The Men in Blue overcame Asia Cup rookies Nepal by 10 wickets (DLS method) to place second in Group A, just behind archrival Pakistan. India choose to bowl first after winning the toss. After inviting Nepal to bat first, they didn’t get off to a good start. Three catches were lost by Indian fielders in the first few overs, which helped Nepal’s hitters get off to a strong start.

However, Rohit’s decision to add spin to the bowling assault proved to be a complete genius. With the help of all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, India gradually entered the match. Mohammed Siraj ended up taking three Nepal wickets in the match in addition to his. Nepal was eventually reduced to 230 by the Indian team.

India were handed a revised target of 145 runs to chase from 23 overs after an almost two-hour rain delay. With 17 balls left, the target was chased down by openers Rohit (unbeaten 74 off 59 deliveries) and Shubman Gill (unbeaten 67 off 62 deliveries).

Team India’s attention is now on the Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 stage as the Group Stage has concluded. On Sunday, September 10, the Men in Blue will play Pakistan, who finished first in Group A, in their first Super Four Asia Cup 2023 game.

On September 2, India and Pakistan played their first Group A match. India’s century partnership during their first innings of batting enabled the country to reach a respectable total. Unfortunately, no play could be made in the second innings since the highly anticipated match between India and Pakistan had to be called off owing to the weather.
