Catch the top moments from the Asia Cup 2018 Super Four clash between India and Bangladesh played in Dubai.
1/10
The Super Four stage of the Asia Cup started with India squaring off against Bangladesh. Indian captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to bowl first. India went into the match with one change, as the injured Hardik Pandya was replaced by Ravindra Jadeja. Bangladesh who had rested Mushfiqur Rahim and Mustafizur Rahman for Thursday's inconsequential game against Afghanistan, brought back the pair in place of batsman Mominul Haque and left-arm seamer Abu Hider.

Sharing the new ball responsibility with Kumar was Jasprit Bumrah. He struck in the very next over scalping Nazmul Hossain Shanto. The Bangladeshi opener attempted to drive a fuller ball from Bumrah but only managed to get a thick edge on it as Shikhar Dhawan at first slip pouched an easy catch. The Tigers were tottering at 16/2 within six overs. (Image: AP)

The next wicket to fall was of danger-man Shakib Al Hasan in the 10th over. After Shakib hit Jadeja for back-to-back boundaries, Dhoni advised Sharma to move Dhawan from slips to square leg. Shakib went for another sweep but this time holed out to Dhawan. Dhoni might have relinquished captaincy but he certainly hasn't forgotten the tricks of the trade. At the fall of Hasan's wicket Bangladesh’s scorecard read 42/3 in 9.4 overs. (Image: AP)

Ravindra Jadeja who was returning to the Indian ODI fold after a period of 14 months, impressed with the ball. He scalped 4 wickets in his 10 over spell finishing with the lowest economy rate of just 2.90. He was responsible for the collapse of Bangladesh’s middle order as they were reduced to 102/7 after 34 overs. (Image: AP)

In a surprising move M S Dhoni was promoted to no.4 and he along with Sharma stitched a 64-run partnership, taking the team to within four runs of victory. Dhoni (33 off 37 balls) threw away his wicket in the 36th over when he tried to finish things off with a boundary. Dinesh Karthik then scored the winnings runs as India won by a comfortably 7 wicket margin. After wins against Hong Kong and Pakistan, this was India's third win on the bounce. (Image: AP)
