Indian star batter Yashasvi Jaiswal has opened up on his snub, having missed out on the Asia Cup 2025 squad. Jaiswal, one of the first names in the Test team, was not picked for the Asia Cup 2025, with competition for places seeing Shubman Gill take the spot. However, Jaiswal has now opened up on his snub, stating that he would work hard on his skills and try to regain his spot for the Men in Blue as the T20 World Cup is not far.
Jaiswal opens up on Asia Cup snub
“It’s all in the selectors’ hands. They look at it from a team combination point of view. I’ll keep doing my thing and I know my time will come. Till then, I’ll keep working on myself, developing myself,” Jaiswal said on Friday.
Jaiswal, along with Shreyas Iyer, was the hot topic of debate when the Indian squad for the Asia Cup 2025 was announced. Both were predicted to be picked for the Asia Cup, but Gill’s availability and Sanju Samson’s option as an alternative opener saw Jaiswal miss out on the opportunity to board the flight to the UAE.

The Men in Blue also beat Pakistan last Sunday by seven wickets, sparking a handshake saga which took the spotlight. India on Friday beat Oman to end the group stage on a flawless winning note.
