Suryakumar Yadav, India’s T20 International captain, has successfully cleared the mandatory fitness test at the BCCI’s Centre of Excellence (COE) in Bengaluru. This comes after he underwent surgery in June in Munich, Germany, for a sports hernia in his lower-right abdomen.

A BCCI source confirmed that “he has cleared his fitness and will be available to captain the Indian team during the Asia Cup.”  With fitness restored, Suryakumar is expected to attend the selection committee meeting in Mumbai on 19 August, where the final Asia Cup squad will be announced.

With the fitness clearance, Suryakumar Yadav is likely to retain his role as captain in the T20 format for the Asia Cup. The tournament is scheduled in the UAE from 9–28 September 2025. India will open their campaign against the UAE on 10 September, followed by the marquee India vs Pakistan clash on 14 September in Dubai.
