    India Look Favourites To Win, But Pakistan Is 'highly Emotional' Team...': Panesar

    Dubai International Cricket Stadium: Former England spinner Monty Panesar believes India are the favourites to win the Asia Cup final but should not take their opponent lightly as Pakistan is a "highly emotional team" in any final they play. The Men in Blue will face arch rivals the tournament’s final for the first time in 41 years when they lock horns at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

    The excitement surrounding the upcoming summit clash is intense because of how the previous two matches between the sides unfolded. From India’s handshake snub in the group stage game to Pakistan players’ controversial gestures and celebrations in the Super 4s match, both teams were involved in considerable drama.

    “India look like the favourites to win the Asia Cup final against Pakistan because they’ve shown great bowling performances, and their batting has also been going well. There’s just one issue. If opener Abhishek Sharma is dismissed early, then there are chances of the middle order being exposed in the powerplay,” Panesar told IANS.
