At the end of this year, the Indian cricket team was announced for the Asia Cup 2022 to be played in the UAE. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) announced the 15-member squad on Monday, 8 August. The selectors selected the final fifty after much deliberation, but for some time about half a dozen players, who have been playing continuously for the team, did not get a chance in Asia Cup 2022.
Only a 15-member team is selected for the multi-nation tournament and in such a situation, about half a dozen players could not make it to it. Although three players will travel with the UAE team as reserve, it is believed that those players may not be needed. Apart from the final fifty, the BCCI has selected Shreyas Iyer, Deepak Chahar, and Axar Patel as reserves in the squad for the Asia Cup 2022.

At the same time, Harshal Patel and Jasprit Bumrah are also out of the team due to injury. Jasprit Bumrah will not be with the team due to a back injury, while Harshal Patel was injured during the tour of West Indies.
It is also not that these players were not able to perform for some time. Actually, except for Deepak Chahar and Kuldeep Yadav (got one match), Shreyas Iyer, Ishan Kishan, Axar Patel, and Sanju Samson got many chances in the last few series and these players took those chances many times. These players did not live up to the expectations and were dropped in Asia Cup 2022.
