On Friday night in Dubai, the final Super Four match of the 2022 Asia Cup features Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Both teams will face off against one another in the competition’s final on Sunday after each team had won two of their first two games. At 18:00 local time, the game gets underway at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
In their last three games, Sri Lanka defeated Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and India while batting second. They will think they can win the final two games to claim the championship.
With only one wicket left and requiring 11 from the last over against Afghanistan, Pakistan appeared to be out of options. But after two sixes, they had triumphed once more. Pakistan will approach the field looking to overcome Sri Lanka.
