Match Analysis

Bangladesh jubilant, but not done yet

The celebrations were not restrained in Bangladesh after they made the final, but Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal said they were not yet finished

20-Mar-2012•Siddarth Ravindran in Mirpur

The master of the chase

Virat Kohli's adaptability is a key strength that's helped him play such a critical role in helping India overhaul big totals

19-Mar-2012•Siddarth Ravindran at the Shere Bangla National Stadium

Unstable batting hurting New Zealand

Bringing in an extra batsman would mean dropping one of the bowlers which could disturb a settled bowling attack. The problems stem from the top

17-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda at Seddon Park

Philander reaps rewards by keeping it simple

Vernon Philander's extraordinary success is due to three key things: consistency, movement and strategic use of his own limitations

17-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda at Seddon Park

Bowling puts India in another jam

Sachin Tendulkar could conceivably have scored a little quicker and helped India to 20 extra runs, but would the listless bowling have been able to defend even that?

17-Mar-2012•Siddarth Ravindran at the Shere Bangla National Stadium

For Bangladesh, there's always Mushfiqur

Apparently, the Bangladesh dressing room wasn't overly nervous when their kingpin, Shakib Al Hasan, was adjudged out with victory still some way off - they knew they still had Mushfiqur Rahim

17-Mar-2012•Mohammad Isam

New Zealand attack allows South Africa off the mat

New Zealand had South Africa reeling at 88 for 6 but their bowlers were unable to deliver the fatal blow, allowing South Africa to steal a first-innings lead

16-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda in Hamilton

Pakistan's middle order comes good at last

No matter how many batsmen Pakistan play, middle-order collapses seem to haunt them, much to Misbah-ul-Haq's chagrin. Finally, with Pakistan playing only six batsmen, Misbah and Umar Akmal gave the team a spine

15-Mar-2012•Siddarth Ravindran at the Shere Bangla Stadium

Sri Lanka overworked and imbalanced

They came to the Asia Cup after five games in 10 days in Australia and had their first practice the day of their first game. But it was the loss of their two allrounders that proved too big a blow for Sri Lanka to adjust to

15-Mar-2012•Siddarth Ravindran at the Shere Bangla Stadium

Steyn and Philander shatter New Zealand

New Zealand appeared to be well placed at 133 for 2 but Dale Steyn and Vernon Philander combined brilliantly to rip out the heart of the home side

15-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda in Hamilton

Roles reversed but partnership flourishes

Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli have had significantly different, if not contrasting, fortunes coming into the Asia Cup. But their partnership has remained solid as ever

13-Mar-2012•Siddarth Ravindran at the Shere Bangla National Stadium

Individuals shine in tournament opener

The opening day of Asia Cup's 12th edition in fact remained as exciting as the corresponding game from 2010, when a scintillating Shahid Afridi century almost overturned the hosts Sri Lanka

12-Mar-2012•Mohammad Isam at the Shere Bangla Stadium

New Zealand must show patience

Ross Taylor and Brendon McCullum are naturally aggressive but must learn from Jacques Kallis to wait for run-scoring opportunities as they attempt a record chase

10-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda in Dunedin

Jacques Rudolph's second coming

A demotion to No.6 in a stop-start career was one last chance for Jacques Rudolph to revive his Test career. In this Test, he has grabbed his opportunity

10-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda in Dunedin

Smith builds foundation for South Africa, again

The fact that South Africa have never lost a Test when Graeme Smith has scored a century, is testament to his prowess as a batsman

09-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda in Dunedin

New Zealand falter after weathering the storm

New Zealand's batsmen survived a technique-testing new-ball burst but squandered the advantage due to some poor shot selection

08-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda in Dunedin

Tahir shows control and poise

The legspinner showed signs of frustration early on, but recovered to bowl an accurate spell

08-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda in Dunedin

New Zealand enliven dull day with piercing bowling

After a cagey beginning, New Zealand decided to depend on aggression rather than the pitch to make inroads, with Chris Martin leading the way. Once conditions started helping, their bowlers had South Africa in trouble

07-Mar-2012•Firdose Moonda in Dunedin

Emotions lend charm to Jayawardene's captaincy

Mahela Jayawardene doesn't hold back on the odd show of theatrics. Given the troubled circumstances, his style of captaincy is responsible for Sri Lanka's reversal of fortunes

06-Mar-2012•Sidharth Monga at the Adelaide Oval

Unlikely trio give Australia scare

The fight that Upul Tharanga, Nuwan Kulasekara and Dhammika Prasad showed in Brisbane has let Australia know that the finals are not over. Sri Lanka are enjoying their tour and won't want it to end in defeat
