Asia Cup 2018: Positives, Grey Areas and Ratings For Team India

The form of Dhoni the wicket-keeper

Dhoni had a good outing as a keeper

Dhoni was quite impressive as a wicket-keeper in the Asia Cup. Dhoni was involved in 12 dismissals in the tournament - 6 catches and 6 stumpings. His stumping of Bangladesh centurion Litton Das in the final was out of the world. His contribution towards Review referrals was also massive.

For his wicket-keeping skills alone, Dhoni gets 7 out of 10.

The Indian fielding

The vast improvement in fielding during the course of the Asia Cup was a big positive for Team India. Even the fast bowlers Bhuvi and Bumrah put a lot of effort on the field. Shikhar Dhawan and Kedar Jadhav were outstanding in the outfield. Jadeja, Rohit Sharma, and Manish Pandey were sparkling in the infield.

The exceptional Indian fielding effort deserves a rating of 8 out of 10.
