23 years ago team India 🇮🇳 was all out for only 54 against #SriLanka in Sharjah.
Congratulations boys on a dominating performance in the #AsiaCup!
Looking forward to this form being carried thru to the #WorldCup 🏆
Too good. 21 overs in the match and done and dusted. Mohammad Siraj was simply outstanding and we have peaked at the right time before the World Cup. Congratulations Team on winning the Asia Cup. #BHAvsSL pic.twitter.com/CQmj1gXimG

India on the verge of a thumping win today in the #AsiaCup finals. And, Rahul Dravid is still not trending on X. Well, only the blame goes to Rahul when the team fails, but when the team wins, he’ll be forgotten. Well, the kind of world we live in. I so badly want India to win…

IND vs SL: Team India win Asia Cup 2023
India dominated the Asia Cup from the start in all departments as apart from the loss against Bangladesh they have been clinical in this continental tournament.
In batting Rohit Sharma has been the flagbearer followed up by Shubman Gill and KL Rahul while in the bowling department, the likes of Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Siraj got the much-needed confidence ahead of the much anticipated ICC ODI World Cup.
