Asia Cup 2023: Team India has started preparations for the Asia Cup. Players are sweating profusely in Bengaluru before the tournament. A full body test was also done in the camp for those players who were part of the 13-day fitness program. Actually, BCCI had prepared a program chart for those players including Rohit-Kohli, who were on a break of 2 weeks, because the board does not want to take any chance in the World Cup.
