Summary Pakistan is playing against Bangladesh to seal final berth in Asia Cup.
DHAKA (Web Desk) - Bangladesh captain Mushfiqur Rahim won the toss and elected to bat against Pakistan in match 8 of the Asia Cup in Dhaka
For the record, Pakistan had lost to Sri Lanka in the tournament opener, before getting their campaign back on track with successive wins over Afghanistan and the big one against India.
India lost to Pakistan two days after their defeat to Sri Lanka. The Indians won their opener against Bangladesh, and their run-rate stands at -0.027 to Pakistan s +0.438.
Reeling under two big defeats, including one against first-timers Afghanistan, Bangladesh would try and look to regain some lost glory against their famed opponents.
In One-day cricket, Bangladesh have upstaged Pakistan just once, that too way back in the 1999 World Cup in England.
And again, Bangladesh, who played the final of the last edition, would be looking to prove that the loss to Afghanistan was a mere aberration and the side has the potential to humble stiffer opponents.
