Srilanka was thinking that 213 was an easy score to chase, whereas it was not. Dunith Wellalage was the only player in the Srilankan team who bowled exceptionally well and contributed 42 runs from his bat. Lost his half century by only 8 runs, it would have given him a good morale boost as a batter. Tomorrow Srilanka will be playing against Pakistan. If he is able to spin the ball in the same manner as yesterday then Pakistan would be in deep trouble. They were struggling to bat against Kuldeep Yadav and they might face the same issue tomorrow. Pakistan bowling is also a concern with injuries to two of its best seamers. The situation for now is not looking good for Pakistan.

You are correct the tournament now depends on who wins between Pakistan and Srilanka. Absolutely certain that Pakistan won't feel comfortable when they play with Srilanka. Srilanka knows that they have good spinners to tackle Pakistan batters. Pakistan knows they do not have excellent spinners to tackle the spinning pitch of Colombo. The way Pakistan batter played against the Indian spin attack has to be the tipping point for the management to reassess the current strategy. Overall they need to reorganise themselves to win the game tomorrow.

After watching them play against the Indian spin attack I felt Pakistani batters are vulnerable to spin bowling. They seem to not understand the pitch, I mean the team management. Why did Pakistan after winning the toss opt to bowl first? When they knew rain was certain. It could be that they became overconfident after the first match. Then we have the Captain who thought it would be safe to have a defensive fielding. Before the ICC World Cup, it is now evident Pakistan and Sri Lanka have to rethink their strategy for the upcoming biggest event.

India has confirmed their position in the final, while Bangladesh is now out of the tournament.

The team that wins the Sri Lanka vs Pakistan match will join India in the final. If Pakistan defeats Sri Lanka in their upcoming game, we'll see the first-ever India vs Pakistan final in Asia Cup history. It promises to be an exciting and high-intensity match that many fans are looking forward to watching.
Yes, India now reached in Final match of the Asia Cup 2023 after defeating the Sri Lanka Team. Sri Lanka can easily win this match The bowling performance is brilliant but the batting can disappoint Sri Lankan Fans. In tomorrow's match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka. The Sri Lanka Team high chance of winning this match because the two best bowlers of Pakistan already had been injured Shaheen Shah and Haris. Both were absent between the Pakistan and India match. Due to the absence of these two players Pakistan will suffer significant losses. Hopefully, other players can compensate for their absence and Pakistan can have a tough competition with Sri Lanka and secure a victory.

Pakistan's early matches were pace attacking but nowadays it has become very difficult for Pakistan as the matches depend on spinners. Especially, Shahinshah Afridi and Naseem Shah are not able to bowl well on the wicket, as a result of which Pakistan's weak spinner bowling is not able to perform well in this year's Asia Cup matches. So we can understand that the favorite Pakistani is in a very difficult situation by looking at Pakistan's weak matches. In fact, if Pakistan's spinner department is not strong, it will be very tough for Pakistan to reach the final of this year's Asia Cup

Sri Lankan pitches, especially the one at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo is not very suitable for pace bowling. Pakistan is heavily dependent on pace, as they don't have any world class spin bowlers. And this is one of the reasons why they performed so well during the early phase and went into decline after that. But we can't underestimate Pakistan. They are such an unpredictable team. All of a sudden they can bounce back and end up as the Asia Cup champions. Afterall, they have some of the best ODI players in the world.

The Asia Cup matches are passing through extreme excitements.. This year's favorites Pakistan are trying hard to qualify for the finals of the Asia Cup but Sri Lanka are creating obstacles for them to qualify. Although India has already passed the final, it is not possible to say which team will qualify as the second qualifier, Pakistan or Sri Lanka, unless there is a match between Sri Lanka and Pakistan. If Sri Lanka could have won tomorrow's match then they would have qualified directly but unfortunately Sri Lanka could not qualify despite getting a small target.

Pakistan were favorites early on, and they performed well in the first few matches. But now, it looks as if they have run out of steam. Their pace attack was feared by everyone, but with injuries to Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf, it is not as threatening as it was before. But that doesn't mean that Sri Lanka are the overwhelming favorites. As we saw yesterday, they wasted a very good chance to defeat India. The target was very small (214), but the Indian spinners (especially Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja) made life really difficult for the Lankan batsmen.

Sri Lanka is the favorite team on the Asia Cup stage. This year, the 16th tournament of the Asia Cup. Sri Lanka has played 12 final matches in 16 tournaments. But India has won the most times. India easily secured the final match in this year's tournament. Bangladesh has been eliminated from the Asia Cup after losing 2 matches out of 2 matches in the Super Four, but Bangladesh has one match left to play against India on the 15th. Tomorrow between these two teams Sri Lanka and Pakistan, the team that wins will be able to play the final. Pakistan is a stronger team than Sri Lanka in tomorrow's match. However, Sri Lanka get a bit more support as they are playing at home. It is not possible to accurately say whether Sri Lanka will go to the final or Pakistan. However, if you analyze the batting and bowling line, Pakistan is ahead.  But I can't see a good performance from Pakistan. It seems that Sri Lanka can reach the final this year. The final match could be Sri Lanka vs India. Do you think which team between Sri Lanka and Pakistan can play the final?

SL failed miserably in the last match against India. The target was achievable, but kudos to Indian spinners.  The match between Pakistan and SL will be interesting to watch. SL spin bowling will cause problems for the Pakistani batters, Babar Azam will be the key wicket. Fakhar is out of form, and the middle order is not performing up to the mark. Plus, there will be forced changes in the Pakistan bowling lineup. It will be interesting to see how Pakistan batters handle Lankan spinners and how Lankan batters perform against Pakistan bowling. I will give Pakistan a bit of an edge in this contest over SL.

Congratulations on qualifying for the finals. India qualify for the finals after back to back wins. India has outclassed the opponents Pakistan and Sirlanka in every department. His top-class Batting, Bowling and Fielding are amazing performances. India Few weeks ago they were looking unsettled when they lost against West Indies but they have gathered the best of their lot right before the World Cup. Hopefully Pakistan we'll be playing against India again this Sunday. Before that there is a virtual semi-final on Thursday between the Host Nation Pakistan vs the Host Nation in reality Sirlanka. If Pakistan their last Super Four match against Sirlinka then Pakistan also qualify for the Final.
After a long wait, India once again qualified for the finals of the Asia Cup. In the previous few seasons only Sri Lanka and Pakistan had qualified for the Asia Cup final but this season India became the first ever to qualify for the Asia Cup final. India is one of the favorites to win the Asia Cup this season. India beat their arch-enemy Pakistan by a huge margin and India is an unbeaten team so far in this Asia Cup season so this season's Asia Cup Indian fans can expect from them. The good news for India is that some of the injured players in their team have come back from injuries and are in very good form so with all the players India can win the Asia Cup tournament title this season.

Chahal is not in the WC squad anyway. All this monkey balancing (in a good way) is going on because of batting depth and also 3 front-line seamers don't make sense in the Indian conditions. 

Bumrah+Siraj(Shami based on form)+ 2 seam allrounder Hardik +Thakur + 1 spin all rounder Jadeja + Kuldeep combination when pitch is fast, like Wankede or Dharamshala.

Leave Thakur out and add spin allrounder Axar into the playing XI when a pitch is spin friendly (Axar+Jadeja+Kuldeep+Hardik+ 2 seamers). We will witness the same pattern in WC.

This combination sounds good. But then, Bumrah needs to be fit. In case Bumrah gets injured, then the equilibrium will get disrupted. I guess in that case the seam combination would be Siraj+Shami+Hardik+Thakur. Anywaym the team balance looks good, with the presence of so many allrounders. Seam-bowling allrounders were always a rarity in Indian cricket, but now there are two of them - Hardik and Shardul. And then Venkatesh Iyer is waiting in the sidelines. For spin-bowling allrounders there was never any scarcity.

Bumrah was amazing but he needs to careful with his recovery, he's too valuable. Miyan also looks good, if Pandaya keeps bowling like that then it's a big plus for India. Shardul doing well so far but the biggest talking point is Kuldeep, he's on a different level when he's high on confidence.
✂✂✂✂

What this means is that there is no room for Mohammad Shami in the squad. If I had to make a choice between Siraj and Shami, then I would rather go for the latter, as he has more control and consistency. But with two pace-bowling allrounders in the squad (Pandya and Shardul), only two full-time pacers are needed and that means that Shami will be kept out. And in the spin department, Kuldeep is cementing his place in the XI, which means no additional slots are available apart from that of the allrounder (Jadeja). So obviously no chance for Chahal and Axar.

At the start of Asia Cup 2023, India were the underdogs. Pakistan and Sri Lanka were favorites to play against each other in the finals. Now, they would be playing against each other to get into the finals. Yesterday again I saw a totally different Indian team playing against the Srilanka side.

The Indian batters struggled to score runs on a pitch that had uneven bounce and supported spinners. Srilankan spinner Welalage was the reason the Indian middle order got wiped out in just a couple of overs. Only a handful of Indian batters were able to make runs and gave a target of only 213 runs to the Srilanka batter to chase. 213 runs is not a big score considering it was a 50-over match.

To my surprise and several cricket fans across the globe, this Indian team was able to defend it. There were a couple of misfields but the Indian fielders but the bowling was again outstanding. Kuldeep Yadav took 4 wickets, Bhumrah took 2 & Jadeja took 2 wickets. What was even more surprising was that Srilanka lost this match by a good margin of 41 runs on their home ground. They were undefeated in their last 13 ODI matches which got broken yesterday.

India have qualified for the Asia cup 2023 Final after defeating Srilanka by 41 runs. Now on September 14 Sri Lanka and Pakistan match will be semi-final. Dunith Wellalage The hero of Sri Lanka pick He gets 5  wickets by just giving 40 runs in 10 overs wickets including Rohit, Gill, Kohli, and Rahul and batting well scored 42 runs unbeaten in just 46 balls a brilliant all round performance  Superstar in making but unfortunately not win this match by just 41 runs missing and all out the Sirlinkan Team in 172 runs. Kuldeep Yadav hero of light night against Pakistan in this match also pick 4 wickets by just giving 43 runs in 9.3 Overs an outstanding performance by Indian Bowlers.

India bowled the opponent in all three matches of Asia Cup 2023. I think the Asia Cup 2023 Final scenario is Pakistan vs. Sri Lanka match winner will meet India on Sunday. If Sri Lanka wins this match against Pakistan then India vs Sri Lanka Final. And If Pakistan wins this match then Pakistan Vs India Final. If Pakistan Vs Sri Lanka is a washout then Sri Lanka will play the final against India because their net run rate is better than Pakistan.

After the thrashing Pakistan received from India, I don't think that they will be able to qualify. On top of that, the Lankan players are in top form. Pakistan bowling attack will be a bit blunted when they face Sri Lanka. Even before the match against India, their spin department was in poor form. Shadab Khan and Ifthikhar Ahmed conceded a lot of runs against India. And now two of their pacers also have got injured - Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf. This will put a lot of pressure on Shaheen Shah Afridi and increase his workload. Zaman Khan or Shahnawaz Dahani maybe brought into the team, but it needs to be seen how effective they will be in Sri Lankan pitches.

Now its Pakistan vs Sri Lanka that would decide the next team that would meet with India in the Finals. India has already defeated both of Pakistan and Sri Lanka and that would be the favorite or a win. Sri Lanka with its performance this year seem to be poorer than the Pakistani team but seeing how they have performed in the last game, Sri Lanka too can get a win. With better odds for Sri Lanka (over 2.5) at the moment, they could be a good bet. The team winning the toss would have a better advantage as the pitch are getting harder for the second batters. So, inplay bets too could be a good option.

Asia Cup Super Four match India vs Sri Lanka has started.India won the toss and decided batting. It is said tha whoever bat frist in Colombo ground has more chance of winning and you can see in the previous match between India and Pakistan , India batted first and defected Pakistan by paying well.Like the previous match between Pakistan and India ,this time also captain Rohit Sharma and s. Gill come to the pitch to bat first.So far he has scored 44 runs in seven overs while continuing his innings.
Team India came out to bat first and started to perform very badly in batting today. Team India scored 197 runs in 47 overs. The runs that Team India scored seem to have collected the runs of the T20 match. It will be very difficult for Team India to win today's match with so few runs.  .Sri Lanka team started with a great performance in bowling. Charith Asalanka took 4 wickets with 18 runs in 9 overs. Dunith Wellalage took 5 wickets with 40 runs in 10 overs.
Of course, the poor performance of the Indian batsmen today meant that they managed to score few runs. Now the match is stopped due to rain, it is a very bad outlook for Asia Cup that every match is stopped due to rain for a long time. However, in today's match, the Indian team has collected 197 runs in 47 overs, which is equal to the T20 runs. Every Indian batsman performed poorly in today's match which led to quick fall of wickets and India could not increase the runs of the team.

It is said tha whoever bat frist in Colombo ground has more chance of winning and you can see in the previous match between India and Pakistan , India batted first and defected Pakistan by paying well.Like the previous match between Pakistan and India ,this time also captain Rohit Sharma and s. Gill come to the pitch to bat first.So far he has scored 44 runs in seven overs while continuing his innings.

The Indian opening pair started very well. They were once 80/0 until Wellalage came to bowl and took 3 wickets. Before that, Srilanka was sloppy on the field and was in a defensive mode. At the moment they are not only fielding well but can put pressure on the Indian batters. Rahul and Kishan are on the pitch and are trying their level best to counter the Srilankan spinners. The current run rate is still above 5 and knowing the Indian batters they would start going after the bowlers when these two spinners are replaced. The match is still well balanced as per my understanding, It would make things more interesting if Srilanka gets another wicket in the next few overs
If Sri Lanka takes a wicket in the next few overs then the Indian team will face many difficulties and become under a lot of pressure. If Sri Lankan fail to get wickets then India has a chance to set almost 300 runs target. In today's match, Sri Lanka bowlers showed amazing performance. Dunith Wellalage was fired on an Indian batsman. He took top batsman wicket of India like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill. The performance of Rohit Sharma was almost outstanding he scored 53 runs in 48 balls and after that ,he got out. Next Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill's performances were not good. At this moment, the India team scored 150 runs in 30 overs one more wicket taken by Dunith Wellalage and now total he took 4 wickets. Now I think India gave a 250 to 270 runs target but Sri Lanka plays quite well.

India poor performance against Sri Lanka was surprising.seeing virat kohil enthusiasm yesterday, it looked like he could single - handedly defeat the Pakistan team.But today  he got out by making three runs .

Sri Lanka have made 170 runs in 40 overs for the loss of three wickets.Sri Lanka have made 170 runs in 40 overs for the loss of seven wickets.Sri Lanka need 43 runs from 56 balls which means they need four runs in each over.Currently D.wellalage and M . Theekshane are batting if they continue their innings like this they will win this match in few overs.

Every Indian batsman performed poorly in today's match which led to quick fall of wickets and India could not increase the runs of the team. But today Sri Lanka put in a great bowling performance which put India's batsmen under a lot of pressure and caused quick fall of wickets which cost India wickets. But today's match is really interesting that a strong team like India will put up such a poor batting performance against Sri Lanka. While India won yesterday's match against Pakistan by a huge margin, India's poor batting against Sri Lanka today may make it very difficult for them to win the match.
India need only four wickets to win against Sri Lanka while Sri Lanka need only 76 runs to win against India. As Sri Lanka have fallen by 6 wickets, if the Indian bowlers can pick up another important wicket then this match win for India will be pretty much assured. The Indian bowlers have been trying from the start and they have been bowling brilliantly which has made Sri Lanka very much on the back foot from India so far. In this match I think Sri Lanka have more chances to win. Since there are enough wickets in hand, if this wicket pair shows patience then they will confirm the final match besides winning this match. Sri Lanka is always a favorite team for the Asia Cup as Sri Lanka has won the highest number of Asia Cup trophies till date. Hope Sri Lanka continue their winning streak.
