After bundling out the minnows for a paltry 166, the dethroned champions reached the target in 41 overs in the day-night encounter at the Premadasa Stadium. Bangladesh's wicketkeeper batsman Khaled Mashud was the top scorer of the match with 54 but that could not prevent his team from suffering its 86th loss in 93 one-day internationals. Shoaib Malik led the Pakistani chase with an effortless 48 and in the process became the first batsman in the tournament to have aggregated more than 300 runs, marking himself out as a top contender for the Man of the Series award. Yousuf Youhana was the other notable contributor with 39. But all that would go down the drain as Pakistan had already been knocked out of the final, which will be played between India and hosts Sri Lanka on Sunday. After today's win, Pakistan finished with 11 points while India tallied 12 and Sri Lanka 13 to book a place in the final. in-depth coverage > Asia Cup 2004 > |
