Best XI of Asia Cup 2018

Seamers:

Seamers didn't have much help from the conditions in UAE. But some seamers did deliver stellar performances.

Malinga made a comeback to the ODIs after a long time. Though it looked like he has gained a lot of weight, he bowled brilliantly for Srilanka. He swung the bowl and also bowled his special yorkers.

Left-arm seamer for Pakistan Shaheen Afridi looked great. He can bowl yorkers at pace, also he has a good slower one.

Left-arm seamer Khaleel Ahmed had an impressive debut against Hongkong and he picked 3 wickets in the first game. In the second game as well he was looking good and batsmen were not comfortable against him. He looks like a good future prospect for India.

Mustafizur Rahman was exceptional in this Asia Cup. He was at his best again and picked some crucial wickets throughout the tournament. It was his performance which took Bangladesh into the finals. He picked 10 wickets at an average of 18.50.

Junaid Khan played just one game and was phenomenal with the ball. He picked 4 wickets in the match Super-4 match against Bangladesh.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar was making a comeback after an injury and looked good. He picked wickets upfront with the new ball. He picked 6 wickets at an average of 29.33.

Jasprit Bumrah was the best seam bowler of the tournament. He was economical even in the death overs. He picked 8 wickets at an impressive average of just 16.
