Bangladeshi batsmen have only two centuries against India. Can you guess the name of batsman who did it as first?

You have to look back to 2008 Asia Cup again to see the name, and the batsman is Alok Kapali who is according to the common belief in Bangladesh, an unfortunate waste of talent. In the present age of video sharing, you may watch the innings of Alok against the bowlers like RP Singh, Ishant Sharma.

Bangladesh posted 283 on the board. Alok was the main batsman to help Tigers to score that high scoring 115 by 96 balls with 10 fours and five sixes to his name. That innings of Alok is still believed as best batting show by a Bangladeshi in the Asia Cup.

But, the expected party of Bangladesh ruined by professional batting effort of Gautam Gambhir’s 90 and Suresh Raina’s 115*. Bangladesh lost by 7 wickets.
