Asia Cup Final 2018- India vs Bangladesh: 4 factors which could determine the fate of the match

#4 Performance of Bangladeshi all-rounders:

Mahmudullah

Almost all the members of the Bangladeshi team have the knack of contributing somewhat in every match and tomorrow’s final should be no exception. They have some very useful all-rounders in the forms of Mahmudullah, Soumya Sarkar and Mashrafe Mortaza and those players could prove to be vital in determining the fate of tomorrow’s match.

Mahmudullah is an underrated cricketer and seldom performs badly. He can be relied upon to bowl his quota of ten overs and also chip in with some useful, quick runs. Mortaza is ageing and somewhat tired but could use his experience to come up with yet another crucial performance. His lusty hits in the death overs might prove to be very important. Soumya Sarkar’s medium pace could also prove to be useful on a slow and low track and he might be able to contribute with a vital breakthrough or two. Veteran Shakib-Al-Hassan might not feature in the playing eleven but remains one of the options for Bangladesh.

If Bangladesh are to cause an upset, their all-rounders would have to perform well and contribute significantly.
