5 Indians with most runs in Asia Cup

#4 Mahendra Singh Dhoni (571 runs)

Dhoni against Pakistan in the 2008 Asia Cup

Dhoni's first Asia Cup was in 2008, as captain, and he shone on his very first game, blasting an unbeaten 106 off just 96 balls against minnows Hong Kong. He's also scored three fifties across three seasons (2008, 2010 and 2012).

From 13 matches, Dhoni averages a whopping 95.16, his last game being in 2012. He was named captain for the 2014 edition, but was ruled out just before the tournament due to a side strain and Virat Kohli was named captain.

He will play under Rohit Sharma in the 2018 Asia Cup, with Dinesh Karthik being the backup keeper in the team.
