Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma, Ishan Kishan and Tilak Varma give the batting plenty of muscle, while Axar Patel offers balance with bat and ball. The bowling looks scary too as Jasprit Bumrah spearheads the attack, with Arshdeep Singh and Ravi Bishnoi in support.Meanwhile, for Afghanistan, Darwish Rasooli is the captain, and the squad includes Karim Janat, Najibullah Zadran, Mohammad Ishaq and Nangeyalia Kharoti. Those names bring some experience. Around them, though, sit several players who haven’t done much at the international level, which makes this a tall order against a full-strength India.Key highlights and reactions: India vs. Afghanistan Asian Games 2026How will washouts be decided during the Asian Games 2026 cricket knockout matches?
