Rohit Sharma collects the Asia Cup trophy, and the team gets together to celebrate winning the title. And with that, the Asia Cup is done and dusted. Next up is a three-match ODI series against Australia at home that starts from 22 September. That will be the final series for India before the ODI World Cup that gets underway on 5 October. We will be back with LIVE coverage of the India vs Australia series, but until then, it's a goodbye from us here. On behalf of my colleagues at Firstpost, this is Vishnu signing off.

"Yeah, it was a great performance. To come out and play like that in the final shows the mental character. Great start with the ball and clinical finish with the bat. I was standing in the slips, and something we take pride in - our seamers have been working really hard. Very very clear in their mind. It was good to see that. Such a performance we will cherish for a long time," says Rohit Sharma at the presentation ceremony.
