'Peaked at the right time': Wishes pour in as ruthless India rout Sri Lanka for Asia Cup title triumph

NEW DELHI: As India lifted the Asia Cup after routing defending champions Sri Lanka by 10 wickets in the final, wishes poured in from all quarters for Rohit Sharma and co.

Mohammed Siraj claimed a career-best 6-21 including four wickets in one over as India folded the Lankans for a lowly 50 in 15.2 overs.

India needed 6.1 overs to achieve the target for a timely boost before their home World Cup beginning next month.

With the win, India also claimed their record-extending 8th Asia Cup title -- ending a trophy drought of 5 years.

Here's a look at some of the wishes that poured in for the Men in Blue after their record win.
