Grand League punts
> With 145 runs @ 48.33, Mehidy is Bangladesh’s second-highest run-getter this Asia Cup but the right-hander has a curiously remarkable record against India. In his ODI career, the right-hander averages 23.47 with the bat but this number rises to an incredible 71.66 against India. In fact, astonishingly, 20.81% of Mehidy’s ODI runs have come against India. Mehidy's last two ODI knocks against India read 100* & 38*. It could just be worth taking a cheeky gamble by captaining Mehidy on Friday.
