India go into Asia Cup with perfect preparation with series wins over Australia and Sri Lanka. (Source: AP File)Normally, India would face the
daunting task of Sri Lanka and Pakistan in Asia Cup but as things stand,
India are undoubtedly the favourites to lift the title come March 6.

Australia and then at home over Sri Lanka, India couldn’t have hit the
ground running at a better moment. But the target for India would
ideally not be the Asia Cup but the World T20 that follows soon after on
home pitches.
