Rahul Dravid Reaction On Asia Cup 2023 Schedule: The official schedule of Asia Cup 2023 was announced on the evening of 19 July. This time the tournament is being organized under the hybrid model, in which 4 matches will be played in Pakistan and 9 matches in Sri Lanka. The Indian team will play its first match on September 2 at the Kandy ground. In the upcoming Asia Cup, 3 matches are being expected between India and Pakistan, for which Indian coach Rahul Dravid has also given a big reaction.
The Indian team is currently in the West Indies and coach Rahul Dravid said in a video released by the BCCI after the announcement of the Asia Cup schedule that to play three times with Pakistan, we must first qualify for the Super-4. We want to concentrate on one match at a time.
Regarding the clash with Pakistan, Rahul Dravid said that I know that we have to play Pakistan and Nepal in our first 2 matches. We need to keep our focus on these matches first. After that we will focus on the next matches. If we get a chance to play Pakistan 3 times, it would be great. We will definitely go into the tournament with the intention of winning, but for that we have to perform better in each and every match.
