Bangladesh face India in super four round of Asia Cup today

Desk Report: Confident Bangladesh take on tournament favorite India in the opening super four match of the ACC Asia Cup scheduled to be held today (Friday) at Dubai International Cricket Stadium in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The match kicks off at 5.30 pm.

After a thumping victory over Sri Lanka in their tournament opening match, the Tigers aim to carry on their winning streak in their remaining matches and one can’t deny the fact that the Tigers have transformed into a quality 50-over side, a format they have mastered after a formidable run at home besides reaching the Asia Cup final in 2012.

Under the great inspiration of Mashrafe Bin Mortaza and seasoned campaigners like Mushfiqur Rahim, Shakib Al Hasan, Mahmudullah Riyadh, the team has the potential to go all the way.

With two quality pacers Mustafizur Rahaman and Rubel Hossain in the squad backed by the experience of Mortaza and Shakib on a slow deck, India couldfind run scoring difficult in the middle overs.

Squads:

Bangladesh: Masrafe bin Mortaza (captain), Shakib Al Hasan, Mohammad Mithun, Litton Das, Mushfiqur Rahim, Ariful Haque, Mahmudullah, Mosaddek Hossain, Nazmul Hossain, Mehidy Hasan, Nazmul Islam, Rubel Hossain, Mustafizur Rahman and Abu Haider.

India: Rohit Sharma (captain), Shikhar Dhawan, Ambati Rayudu, Dinesh
Karthik, MS Dhoni (wk), Manish Pandey, Kedar Jadhav, Bhuvneshwar Kumar,
Jasprit Bumrah, Khaleel Ahmed, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Ravindra
Jadeja, Siddharth Kaul, Deepak Chahar.
