| India out of Asia Cup as the hosts beat Sri Lanka in rain-affected match |
In the start, no Cricket pundit gave any weight to the hosts of the tournament except saying they can cause an odd upset. But the way Bangla Tigers progressed during the tournament; it’s really marvelous and looks like an international standard team in the final stages of their glory on the cricket fields.
Bangladesh reached its first Asia Cup final when it cruised past Sri Lanka by five wickets with 17 balls to spare in a rain-affected match yesterday night.
After being beaten in the hard-fought tournament opener against Pakistan; they never looked back rather to overcome their own weaknesses. They beat India in one of the most exciting matches of the tournament till date and then shocked India yet again throwing them out of the tournament by beating Sri Lanka in the last league match yesterday.
It looks like bad luck is continuously chasing India; especially in this tournament in the form of Bangladesh. First they were dragged to the edge of exit door by the courageous and successful run chase by Bangladesh and now they were pushed out of the tournament by the same team.
Now spirited Bangladesh will take on Pakistan in the tournament final tomorrow (Thursday, March 22) with an aim to attain their first glory in the game of cricket.
Cricket lovers are hoping for an exciting final tomorrow.
