Asia Cup: India's probable playing XI

MS Dhoni

Dhoni should bat up the order

In absence of Kohli, Dhoni should bat up the order to provide some stability to the middle-order. This would also provide confidence to the players in the middle-order and help them play their natural game. The former skipper can anchor the innings while others around him play an attacking brand of cricket. The finisher role can be handled by the ever-improving Pandya who has every shot in his repertoire.
