Date and Time : 28th September 2018, 5:00 PM IST

India have had a good tournament so far barring that last game against Afghanistan which resulted in a tie. They will still be confident ahead of the final as they take on Bangladesh.
India have batted well in the tournament thus far and also have bowled brilliantly. They will need to repeat the same process again on Friday.
India will need to avoid complacency and play their best cricket.
On the other hand, Bangladesh are in their third Asia Cup final and will look to win it for the first time ever. Bangladesh though know that India will not make things easy.
Bangladesh have played some fine cricket so far and on Friday it will be another test for them. They will have to give their all and hope for the best.
India are ahead in terms of the head to head in ODI’s against Bangladesh and will look to continue the good work.
