Team India has just eased through the Asia Cup except in the matches against Hong Kong and Afghanistan where they rested their key players. Their bowling attack and the openers will be gearing up for the Bangladesh challenge after taking a break in the previous match. It won’t be any easy for the opponents to handle the Indian openers who schooled Pakistan’s bowling twice in two games. They will surely have a chance if they can expose the Indian middle-order early on who are already under pressure of securing their places in the team.

All the key stats and numbers ahead of the big final between India and Bangladesh:

4 – India and Bangladesh faced off in four knockout matches of a tournament in International cricket. The Men n Blue came out on the top in all the four instances.
