# India's 374-4 is now the highest innings totals in the Asia Cup, surpassing Sri Lanka's 357-9 against Bangladesh in Lahore [Images] on Wednesday.

# Suresh Raina (101 off 68 balls) posted his maiden hundred in ODIs.

# Raina's 66-ball century is the second fastest by an Indian batsman in ODIs, next only to Mohammad Azharuddin's 62-ball hundred against New Zealand at Baroda on December 17, 1988.

# Virender Sehwag's [Images] 78 off 44 balls is his third fifty in his last four innings -- 89 vs Pakistan in Dhaka on June 10,
2008, followed by 59 vs Bangladesh in Dhaka on June 12.

# Gautam Gambhir [Images] hit his ninth fifty in ODIs and his first against Hong Kong.
