India vs Bangladesh, Asia Cup final: Players to watch out for

New Delhi: Bangladesh will look to halt India's march towards a sixth Asia Cup title when the two sides meet in the final on Sunday.

While India are the clear favorites to win, it would be foolish to disregard the chances of Bangladesh in front of their home fans.

There are plenty of power players on either side. Here are four who could alter the course of this high-profile match:

Virat Kohli: India's vice-captain has easily been the best player in the tournament. The Men in Blue will rely on Kohli to score big in the final.

Taskin Ahmed: The 20-year-old is one of the most promising pacers in world cricket at the moment. Indian batsmen will be wary of Taskin who has picked three wickets so far in the tournament.

Ashish Nehra: The left-arm pacer has had a major impact ever since he made his comeback. The veteran will be expected to provide early breakthroughs against Bangladesh.

Shakib Al Hasan: Despite concerns over his fitness, the iconic all-rounder is expected to play. The final is the perfect platform for Shakib who hasn't so far performed as per expectations.
