Rohit Sharma
The stand-in India skipper is the top scorer of the Asia Cup 2018 so far with more than 300 runs and a hundred to boot with. As a captain too, Rohit did well marshalling his resources and ringing in the changes at the right time. Can he master the pressure of a final? Of course, Rohit has done it earlier in the IPL while leading the Mumbai Indians.
Shikhar Dhawan
After his struggles against England in the Test series, Dhawan is back to his best in conditions familiar to him in the Asia Cup 2018. He also has a hundred against his name. Along with Rohit, Shikhar has to give India a good foundation - mandatoty because the middle-order has not evinced a lot of confidence thus far.
Ravindra Jadeja
Jadeja came to the side as a replacement for the injured Hardik Pandya. And what an impact he has made so far - picking up seven wickets from two matches. He made 25 against Afghanistan but failed to take India over the line as the match ended in a tie. But his form would be a decisive factor against Bangladesh.
Jasprit Bumrah
The right-arm pacer is equally effective with the new ball and in the slog overs. He has good pace and accurate too - evident from the seven wickets he plucked from three matches so far in the Asia Cup 2018.
Bhuvneshwar Kumar
After missing the entire Test series against England, Bhuvneshwar has made a comeback with bang in the Asia Cup. His three-wicket effort against Pakistan and Bangladesh underlined his abilities with the new ball. He will be required to do an encore in the final.
