Preview
Sitting on the cusp of creating history, Bangladesh will be determined to register their biggest victory since arriving at the top-flight of international cricket when they take on Pakistan in Aisa cup final on Thursday.
The giant-killers thrashed India, chasing down a mammoth 290, but that was seen merely as one of the rare stunners that the Tigers are so well known to throw up in multi-national events.
However, the determined side proved the critics wrong by beating an already demoralised Sri Lanka as well, a result that knocked India out of the final.
But Pakistan would look to play the party poopers. Misbah-ul-Haq`s men have not won the title since 2000 edition, which was interestingly held in Bangladesh.
Teams:
Bangladesh:Tamim Iqbal, Nazimuddin, Jahurul Islam, Mushfiqur Rahim(c), Shakib Al Hasan, Nasir Hossain, Mahmudullah, Mashrafe Mortaza, Abdur Razzak, Shahadat Hossain, Nazmul Hossain
Pakistan: Mohammad Hafeez, Nasir Jamshed, Umar Akmal, Younis Khan, Shahid Afridi, Hammad Azam, Misbah-ul-Haq(c), Sarfraz Ahmed, Saeed Ajmal, Aizaz Cheema, Umar Gul
