Asia Cup 2022 Team India: The Indian cricket team was considered a strong contender to win the title before the start of Asia Cup 2022. Team India started this tournament in a great way, but in the Super-4 stage, Team India lost two consecutive matches. In such a situation, far from winning the title, it has become almost impossible for Team India to reach the final. Many players were responsible in the defeat of Team India, but there were two players who flopped in the entire Asia Cup. Both these players can also be seen sitting out of the Indian team forever in the coming time.1. Bhuvneshwar KumarThere is no doubt that the most reliable bowler of Team India became the biggest villain of the team in the Asia Cup. If anyone is the biggest responsible for the Indian team's defeat in Super 4, then it is Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Sri Lanka needed 21 runs in the last 2 overs to win this match, so Rohit showed trust in Bhuvneshwar and gave him the 19th over. But Bhuvi could not take advantage of his experience and he spent 14 runs in this over.Something similar was also seen against Pakistan. Where the responsibility of the 19th over was handed over to Bhuvi. Against Pakistan too, he spent 19 runs in the 19th over. On both occasions, Arshdeep Singh got only 7 runs to defend in the last over, which was very difficult to save.2. KL RahulTeam India's star opening batsman KL Rahul was among the players with very poor performance in the Asia Cup. Before the Asia Cup, questions were being raised on whether Rahul was fully fit or not. Rahul failed completely as an opener. KL Rahul got out after scoring just 6 runs against Sri Lanka. Rahul was also dismissed for just 28 runs in the match played against Pakistan on Sunday.He has so far scored 28 runs in his three Asia Cup matches at a strike rate of 106.67. Questions are being raised about his poor performance now that it would be right to exclude Rahul from the World Cup. Ishan Kishan can take over the responsibility of opening in place of Rahul. Apart from this, veteran openers like Shikhar Dhawan are also sitting outside the team.
