Asia Cup, UAE, 15-28 September, 2018

50 over tournament between India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Bangladesh and [cough] Hong Kong.

Nobody cares so no rikki please.

In Group stage Lanka was embarrassingly knocked out by the Ghanis and Bangers. HK lost the other group.

Just about down to the Final, which will be almost certainly be India v Pakistan.

Well, I guess it’s a SODIT but good to see the lesser nations getting an opportunity to shine and in some cases taking it.

I’m guessing there aren’t too many Chinese sounding names among the Hong Kong side

Geez, it's all happening in this tournament!!

The Ghanis tied with India yesterday, and the Bangers beat the Wackies overnight.

Is JtB in town?

The Bangers now play India in the Final. Well done them.

The matches as a standalone were good. The format sucked. It was basically the Star Sports "we f*cked up by paying too much for TV rights and desperate to recoup it" cup.

Trying to coerce the board into selecting Kohli was the corn on top of a shitty cake. That too because the advertising rates fell short of their estimates...
