Asia Cup has been won but that was just a small step in the right direction towards the destination, i.e., lifting the ICC Cricket World Cup trophy on November 19 in Ahmedabad. It was going to a hectic few months for the Indian team and the 8th Asia Cup title has just come as a confirmation that what Team India is doing is correct and they are on the right path, however, they have to continue doing the same thing, keep ticking those boxes because the journey ahead is long and tough.
The next step is a three-match ODI series against Australia. Both teams are struggling with their respective injuries and both have named a few extra players keeping in mind the fitness of their key players and to compensate for a potential emergency in the future. The three-match series would not only give both teams a chance to iron out their flaws but also test their skill levels against a strong opponent while finalising their preparations for the World Cup.
