Asia Cup final 2016
Kohli's jig and Tamim's close shave
Much discussed moments of Asia Cup 2016 final between Bangladesh and India at Mirpur Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium.
Core Battles / Mahmudullah Riyad v Yuvraj Singh
Yuvraj is feared for his six-hitting abilities and has rediscovered his touch, while Mahmudullah can take Bangladesh home in a difficult chase or make sure that there are enough runs on the board to defend, both of which he does in elegant fashion.
Core Battles / Mushfiqur Rahim v Suresh Raina
Both Mushfiqur Rahim and Suresh Raina come in at number four and both have the ability to set the tone for their teams.
Core Battles / Taskin Ahmed v Ashish Nehra
Nehra has a combination of new-ball movement at decent pace often results in early wickets, while Taskin is much quicker and has repeatedly provided good bowling starts to the Tigers with his economical and incisive spells.
CORE BATTLES / Tamim Iqbal v Rohit Sharma
Bangladesh opener Tamim Iqbal and India opener Rohit Sharma have two very different styles with very similar impacts on their respective teams.
Fan factor in Asia Cup final
India are no strangers to playing in cacophony but playing in front of a raucous, partisan Bangladesh crowd in the Asia Cup final could be an altogether different experience.
Repaying faith, the Mahmudullah way
Mahmudullah seems to have made a smooth transition from a batsman who struggled to express himself in the limited opportunities he received at No. 6 to one who thrives under pressure.
Nation turns green on social media; anticipating historic Asia Cup victory
Scores of users on social media platforms are expressing their solidarity with Bangladesh national cricket team, in hope of achieving a historic victory against India at the Asia Cup final.
