Pakistan wins Asia cup


Pakistan claimed the Asia Cup with a thrilling two-run victory over Bangladesh in Dhaka on Thursday, breaking the hearts of the home support who saw their unfancied side take the game to the wire.

Pakistan made 236 for 9 in their 50 overs and then held Bangladesh to 234-8, despite impressive knocks of 68 from Shakib Al Hasan and a score of 60 from opener Tamim Iqbal.

Pakistan paceman Aizaz Cheema grabbed three wickets, while fast bowler Umar Gul and off-spinner Saeed Ajmal each took two to strangle Bangladesh's run-chase.
