Dubai: Fans are disappointed without an India-Pakistan final in Asia Cup 2018. But Bangladesh and India clashes have given cricket supporters enough memories and they can look forward to another exciting match here on Friday.
Listed below are the key battles that fans should be on the lookout for, in the summit clash at Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
Mustafizur is a bowler whose strength lies in his accuracy and his variety. He varies from cutters to slow bouncers to yorkers. However, up against him are Dhawan and Sharma who are in hot form in the tournament.
The 20-year-old off-spinner is a menace for the opposition batsmen. In that circumstance, it will be trouble for India if he strikes and the batting order fails to hold up.
Wicketkeeper-batsman Rahim is a presence one cannot ignore. His towering persona at the crease can be both explosive as well as effective under pressure. He has 297 runs in his account in the tournament and he will be the biggest challenge for Indian spin twins Kuldeep and Chahal.
He is a 34-year-old veteran with multiple injuries and while he is no longer the old force, captain Mortaza is still enough to act as a catalyst for the team morale. Added is the fact that he has had a good record against India and would strive to maintain it.
