After a comfortable ten-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in the final at Colombo's R. Premadasa Stadium, the Asia Cup 2023 champions are none other than Team India. This impressive win notches up their eighth Asia Cup title and adds to their growing collection of multinational tournament trophies since 2018. Here is the Team of the tournament.
Shubman Gill, Rohit Sharma (C), Kusal Mendis, KL Rahul (WK), Najmul Hossain Shanto, Charith Asalanka, Dunith Wellalage, Shaheen Shah Afridi, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Matheesha Pathirana, Sadeera Samarawickrama (12th Man)
SHUBMAN GILL
The standout performer in white-ball cricket in the year 2023, Shubman Gill, has consistently delivered entertainment and runs throughout the tournament. Although he had a somewhat uncertain beginning against Pakistan, Gill managed to regain his form as the competition unfolded, amassing an impressive total of 302 runs at an impressive average of 75.50. This outstanding performance included a resilient 121-run innings against Bangladesh and two half-centuries. As a result, he is the tournament's leading run-scorer and appears to be in excellent touch at the top of the order as he prepares for the upcoming World Cup.
ROHIT SHARMA (C)
Rohit Sharma, leading the Indian team, has secured his second significant international title as captain, demonstrating both his leadership prowess and batting brilliance. In 5 innings, he amassed a total of 194 runs with an impressive average of 48.50 while opening the innings. This remarkable performance included three half-centuries, all achieved at a strike rate of 107.78. His innings of 53 runs against Sri Lanka in a closely contested, low-scoring thriller stood out as his most exceptional contribution during this tournament.
KUSAL MENDIS
