Asia Cup T-20: India set to test bench-strength against UAE today

India has refused to take lightly today's inconsequential match against UAE in Mirpur, Dhaka, as the team wants to continue the winning spree. They consider the win-run will give them a psychological boost in World T20 scheduled to be held in their home-den. Skipper MS Dhoni said the UAE match will give an opportunity to players like Harbhajan Singh and Pawan Negi who have not played in the tournament till now. Spinner Ravichandran Ashwin summed up the sentiment by saying " we are looking at a longer session of T20 over the next 3-4 months, it is more about what the team can achieve and the opponent does not matter. For the UAE team which showed amazing bowling performance, unmatched by poor batting in the last 3 matches, today's match will provide the last chance to give the Asian giants a big crack.
