WATCH: The thrilling last over which kept the fans on the edge
India lifts the Asia Cup for the 7th time as Jadhav guides India to glory
Ahead of the Asia Cup 2018 final between India and Bangladesh, it was expected that the face-off may turn out to be a one-sided game. Moreover, a majority of cricket fans wanted to see Pakistan against the men in blue. However, Mashrafe Mortaza’s men left no stone unturned to turn the clash into a nail-biter event.
The 223-runs seemed to be a cakewalk before the Indian batsmen took the centre stage. Following India’s last few batting performances, the viewers probably have speculated that they would clinch the game easily. But Bangladesh were in no mood in giving away the game so easily.
The game was dragged till the last ball of the match where India managed to win the game by 7 wickets. Moreover, the last six balls of the game have turned the heat on as India needed run-a-ball 6 runs to win with 3 wickets in hand.
Here’s how India overcome the pressure and won the match with the last-ball single taken by Kedar Jadhav:
