Asia Cup 2025 begins today, September 9. Before the start of the tournament, a joint press conference was held with all the captains. During this, Team India’s captain Suryakumar Yadav did not consider India as the favorites to win the Asia Cup.

In fact, a journalist asked Suryakumar Yadav: “You are considered favorites to win the Asia Cup, but since you are playing T20I cricket after a long time, won’t there be extra pressure on you?”

Replying with a smile, Suryakumar said:
“Who said that? I didn’t hear it. (laughs). Well, if your preparations are solid, then confidence automatically comes when you step onto the field. Yes, we’re playing after quite some time, but we arrived here 3-4 days ago and spent some good time together as a team. Really looking forward to this tournament.”
