Who will win Asia Cup 2022?
With just a few days remaining before the start of the Asia Cup, many fans and pundits have started to predict the result of the tournament and have picked their favourites to win the event.
Indian cricket team is favourites to win the Asia Cup 2022. The Rohit Sharma-led side are clear favourites to win the tournament considering their track record in the tournament. They have pretty balanced side too as all their departments look settled.
Pakistan can give India a tough competition but with Shaheen Afridi ruled out and pitches being flat, the Rohit-led side can conquer them as well. They have won the title seven times and if they play to their ability, eighth cup is not far away from them.
