Indian team under pressure to perform in Asia cup

After two disappointing ODI tours of South Africa and Newzeland where the team did not win a single match the Indian team are under pressure to perform well in the upcoming asia cup starting from tomorrow. Virat Kohli has added responsibility because he has given captaincy for this tournament. In the past two overseas series sometimes the batting clicked and sometimes the bowling was not good as they gave the batsman too much width. In this tournament MS Dhoni is not there as a captain, it gives a chance for Virat Kohli to prove his mettle as a captain.

This team has so many young players which have to prove a lot to the selectors that they are capable of doing well. The batting looks quite solid comprising of Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Rahane, Dinesh Karthik, Stuart Binny, Pujara, but the main problem is the bowling. The pitches here are going to help the spinners so Ashwin and Jadjea will play a crucial role in getting wickets.

The other teams which include Bangladesh, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Afghanstan. This Indian team must think positive enough to get wins under the belt. In the Newzeland tour Virat Kohli was the standout performer, MS Dhoni played some crucial innings and Jajdeja chipped in with some vital knocks which helped him a lot.

The Indian team must be wary of Pakistan because of the bowling attack but the weakness is their batting which crumbles under pressure. If India wins this tournament Virat Kohli will be considered as the next captain of India.
