India at the Asia Cup have always been very impressive and their record sees them with wins in the inaugural edition (2004) defeating Sri Lanka 5-0. In the following 3 seasons again handed Sri Lanka defeats in the final to win in 2004-05 by 97-runs, in 2006 by 8 wickets and then in 2008 won by a thumping 177 run margin. India to complete their double hat-trick of title wins, handed defeats to Pakistan in the finals in 2012 by 18 runs and then in 2016 by 17 runs.

The previous 7th edition of the Asia Cup was the only one where India didn’t go on to win the title as they’d lost to Bangladesh in a last-ball thriller as the side registered a 3-wicket win to get hands on their maiden title win. India will again look to get started with a title win streak and the squad named is simply the best that could forward and held India bring back the title home.
