New Delhi: Bangladesh will be pitted against India in the final of the ongoing Asia Cup T20 match to be played at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur, Dhaka on Sunday.

Ahead of the intense tie, a picture showing Taskin Ahmed holding a chopped head of Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni is doing the rounds.

This is the second time that Bangladesh have used social media to target the Indian side.

This comes after the earlier incident in 2015 when the Bangladesh side had shown utter disrespect towards the Indian cricket team. A Bangladeshi newspaper has produced a fake 'cutter' advertisement, in which seven Indian cricketers are seen standing with their heads half-shaven.

Young Bangladeshi paceman Mustafizur Rahman, who tormented the Indian players in the ODI series back then, was shown endorsing a cutter - symbolising his 'offcutters' - and the Indian players were holding a banner which reads, 'We have used it. You can use it too'.

Bangladesh will be upbeat of facing India on Sunday and the fans will be excited ahead of this thrilling contest. India have won all their matches so far and go into the tie as favourites.

Like the picture, Bangladesh will want to hope MS Dhoni's side falters against them.
