From our Sports Correspondent

Mohammed Siraj conjured a magical spell of seam and swing bowling with magnificent figures of 6 for 21 as India crushed Sri Lanka by 10 wickets to lift the Asia Cup title after a gap of five years.

This was India’s seventh Asia Cup Title and also their biggest victory (263 balls) in O.D.I.s in terms of balls remaining.

Siraj’s astonishing effort saw defending champions Sri Lanka getting bundled out for 50. India did not bat an eyelid in the chase, as Shubman Gill with 27 runs and Ishan Kishan with 23 runs did the job in just 6.1 overs.
