India Are Favourites To Win Asia Cup, Says Farveez Maharoof
Dubai International Cricket Stadium: Former Sri Lanka fast-bowling all-rounder Farveez Maharoof has backed India to win the upcoming Men’s T20 Asia Cup, calling them ‘clear favourites’ in terms of how their squad is shaping up.
India have won the Asia Cup eight times, including emerging victorious in the T20I edition of the competition held in Bangladesh in 2016. The 17th edition of the Asia Cup, set to happen in the UAE from September 9-28, marks India’s first T20I outing since winning the home series against England by 4-1 in January.
“I would think clear favourites for me are India, looking at how their side is. Dark horses for me, I'll say Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. One big reason is that in big tournaments, it's about (the performance) on that particular day in T20 cricket,” Maharoof told IANS on the sidelines of the CLT10 league.
