Charith Asalanka happens to be one of the faces of the modern revolution in Sri Lankan Cricket. He is their solid rock in the middle order. Asalanka along with Dhananjay De Silva has a lot to offer to the team. This left-hander has been on a roll since the ICC T20 World Cup held in 2021. He was really impressive in that tournament. If Pathum Nissanka, Asalanka, and De Silva can bat and get the Sri Lankans to around 165, the team will be difficult to beat. 

Virat Kohli is a player to Watch out for at Asia Cup 2022:

Virat Kohli is generally not someone to feature on these lists as he is a class apart. But since Virat has been under the scanner even after an above-average performance in games, he is someone who will be under the watchful eye. Virat is bound to do well. He is a modern-day great and one of the best to touch the bat.  

Mushfiqur Rahim:

Bangladesh Cricket is looking for fresher faces and characters to run the team after Shakib and Rahim walk away from the team. But till they find someone, the pressure has to be taken by Rahim. Rahim will be batting in the middle order. He has the likes of Anamul Haque to bat along with. The presence of Liton Das would have created an impact but he is out due to injury. So, for Bangladesh, the maximum dependence is on Mushfiqur and Shakib. 

Najibullah Zadran:

Najibullah Zadran is one hell of a talented player. Zadran is likely to bat in the middle order. He will be playing along with the comeback man, Shamiullah Shinwari. Zadran was close to getting an IPL contract but missed out due to a bit. If he impresses in the Asia Cup and the World Cup, his ticket to the IPL is certainly booked! 

Fakhar Zaman is a Player to Watch out for at Asia Cup 2022:

Fakhar Zaman is a big-match player. When all the fighters of Pakistan are down and out, it is Fakhar who stands tall with the bat in hand. This mighty left-hander has been impressive off-late. His cover drive and square cut are a treat to watch. One can never forget Fakhar Zaman spoiling the party for India at the 2017 Champions Trophy. It will be great to see a battle between him and Bhuvneshwar Kumar as Bhuvi will swing the ball away from the left-hander.
