Sundar was part of India’s gold medal-winning squad at the 2023 Hangzhou Asian Games.
Delving into his experience from three years ago, the all-rounder added that cricket’s return to the Olympics in 2028 will raise the bar further for teams to step up.
“I was lucky enough to be part of the Asian Games last year in China as well, and yes, all of us are looking forward to the Olympics as well.
“It’s a big stage, and there will be a few more countries who play cricket really well, and compete in that tournament, and yes, if we can win the gold medal in Olympics, it will be a massive blessing.”
India arrive into the contest on the back of a dominant 3-0 T20I series win against Afghanistan.
Sundar is optimistic that the team’s white-ball pedigree will shine as they look to repeat a gold-medal run at the Asian Games.
“We’ve always been unstoppable, and we’ve been extremely strong, especially in this format.
“So we’re just looking forward to prepare over here in Tokyo and be really prepared by the time we go to Asian Games, and have a great set of games over there and eventually win the gold medal.”
