The Asia Cup 2018 final on Friday kept the Indian cricket fans on their toes until Kedar Jadhav ran that most defining single to beat Bangladesh by three wickets to win their seventh title in a pulsating last-ball finish. The 223-run chase turned out to be a complete roller coaster ride for the Indians and its impact is surely going to remain in their minds for a longer period of time.
Somewhere the credit goes to Mashrafe Mortaza’s superfine captaincy that time and again, Bangladesh pushed India under pressure. However, it was the lower order which showed the utmost character and patiently won the battle for the country.
After defeating Bangladesh by 3 wickets, India won the 7th Asia Cup title. Let’s have a look at the list of awards distributed in the presentation ceremony before the men-in-blue lifted the trophy.
