Dhawan was dismissed for 15 and Sharma for a punishing 55-ball 48, studded with three sixes and as many boundaries. India then required six off the last over and one off the final delivery which came as a leg-bye. India won the Asia Cup — under a Twenty20 format — in Bangladesh in 2016. Friday’s result meant Bangladesh lost in a second Asia Cup final after coming up just short by two runs in the 2012 final against Pakistan at home. Earlier Bangladesh lost all their wickets for 102 runs in a major middle order collapse after a brisk opening stand of 120.
