Stats: Asia Cup 2016 Final - Bangladesh vs India

Shikhar Dhawan and Virat Kohli batted with authority to chase a competitive total and ensure that India clinched the Asia Cup for a record sixth time in Mirpur. Bangladesh were in the contest for most parts but ran out of steam in the end as the raucous crowd at the Shere Bangla Stadium was silenced.

That the match even happened was a minor miracle in itself. A heavy thunderstorm gripped Mirpur for at least a couple of hours into the pre-scheduled playing time. But, the ground staff braved the incessant rain and swooped in when the skies began to clear. A world-class drainage system also helped significantly to get the match started.
