India defeated Bangladesh to win Asia cup

Mirpur : India won the Asia Cup, outclassing Bangladesh by eight wickets in the final at the Sher-e-Bangladesh National Stadium here on Sunday evening. Delhi lads Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli led the charge with a 94-run partnership as India overhauled the 121-run target in 13.5 overs. Dhawan, who has been a flop throughout the tournament, finally found his touch when it mattered most, with 60 runs scored off 44 balls with nine boundaries. Kohli remained unbeaten on 41 runs off 28 balls with five boundaries. Al-Amin Hossain gave Bangladesh some early hope by dismissing Rohit Sharma early. But that was one of the few moments of joy that the Bangladesh players and the capacity home crowd could find as India emerged as the of Asia with seven balls and eight wickets to spare. Earlier, Bangladesh posted a competitive total of 120/5 thanks to some lower order fireworks by Mohammad Mahmudullah.
