During the final Super 4 match of the 2025 Asia Cup on September 26, India ultimately won against Sri Lanka in a thrilling Super Over after the match ended in a tie. India set a good target after scoring 202/5, with Abhishek Sharma scoring 61 and Tilak Varma scoring 49. Sri Lanka had a fantastic response, as Pathum Nissanka got a phenomenal century (107) and Kusal Perera had a fast 58, to achieve the same score as India and force the first Super Over in the history of the Asia cup. Below are the main reasons for Sri Lanka defeat:

1. Failure to finish in the final overs and Super Over

Sri Lanka was in a very strong position but could not finish. Sri Lanka needed 12 runs in the last over of the main game but only managed 11 runs to tie the match. Their Super Over only netted them 2 runs off of 2 wickets off of the bowling from Arshdeep Singh who sealed the game for India.

2. India’s bowling in the middle overs

After a strong start by Sri Lanka, India’s bowlers, particularly spinners Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakaravarthy, regained control with some economical spells, including key wickets, which strove Sri Lanka’s momentum and made it harder for them to maintain the run chase.

3. Arshdeep Singh had a significant Super Over.

 India put its trust into Arshdeep Singh to bowl in the Super Over, and he proved himself under pressure, taking the wickets of Kusal Perera and Dasun Shanaka for only two runs to confirm India's win.

In the Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 match against India, Pathum Nissanka, a right-handed opener for Sri Lanka, accomplished a remarkable milestone by scoring his maiden T20I century. After setting a demanding goal of 203 runs to chase in Dubai on Friday, Nissanka displayed a masterful and composed innings to keep Sri Lanka in the game throughout the edgy run chase.

The opener built a match-high value partnership with a veteran, Kusal Perera, for the second wicket that was 127. The partnership is now also the third-highest partnership for Sri Lanka for any wicket in T20Is, ranking behind the celebrated partnerships of Jayawardene-Sangakkara and Dilshan-Jayawardene in World Cups. Nissanka lost his partner early, due to a dismissal at the behest of Kusal Mendis, but he was able to steady the ship and score 47 runs in the powerplay single-handedly.

Nissanka first reached fifty from 25 balls, while dominating the Indian bowlers, and continued onwards to a quick century after the wicket of Perera in the thirteenth over. Even as India picked up regular wickets to narrow the match swing to their advantage, Nissanka was not deterred after scoring his century in only 52 balls. Moreover, the innings secured Nissanka as the very first batter from Sri Lanka to score a T20I hundred against India, while exceeding the record from the overall position of 79 set in 2024.

Nissanka's century was a lesson in timing and technique. He took control of a wayward yorker from Arshdeep Singh, moving across his stumps with balance and striking with power straight down the ground over the bowler's head. It was neither over the top nor underwhelming as he celebrated, taking off his helmet and acknowledging the applause from the crowd.

Before Nissanka's exploits, India had set a target of 202/5 after opting to bat first. Minibus Abhishek Sharma led the way with 61 runs off 31 balls, while Tilak Varma finished with a useful 49 runs off 34 balls. Sharma's knock would also lead him to become the leading run-scorer in an Asia Cup T20I edition ahead of seniors Virat Kohli and Mohammad Rizwan. Sanju Samson added 39 useful runs, providing a total that India would be able to defend at the back of their 3-pronged pace attack.

While Nissanka created his own piece of T20I history, what he also demonstrated, aside from showing power and timing, was the ability to not lose your composure and play in the temperament in a big run chase. The century was reflective of who Nissanka is as a captain and batter. While Sri Lanka had to chase a big total on arrival, it showcased that Nissanka can rise with the pressure of having to anchor and lead his team on the run chase.

India vs Sri Lanka Match 6: India will face Sri Lanka for the first time in the Asia Cup. India has already secured their spot in the final, while Sri Lanka has lost two matches in the Super Four group and has been eliminated from the tournament. This match will be played at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai, at 8:00. In this article, we will explore the playing 11 for IND vs SL, pitch reports, and key players' statistics.

India vs Sri Lanka Super-4, Match 6 Match Details:

India's Team Preview:

India has yet to lose a match in this tournament. They already secured their spot in the final by winning two consecutive games of the Super-4 group. India won its last match against Bangladesh by 41 runs. The audience once again witnessed Abhishek Sharma's fiery inning. 

He scored 75 runs on 37 balls, including 6 fours and 5 sixes. After that, middle-order batter Hardik Pandya steadied the innings, scoring 38 and 29 runs and set a target of 168. In the bowling section, Kuldeep Yadav once again bowled well and picked up 3 wickets, while Varun Chakaravarthy and Jasprit Bumrah took 2 wickets each. Abhishek Sharma was awarded Man of the Match for his excellent performance.

India's Key players:

Sri Lanka Team Preview: 

Sri Lanka topped the Group B points table, winning all their matches. However, they lost both their matches in the super-4 stage; as a result, they were eliminated from the tournament. Sri Lanka lost its last match to Pakistan by 5 wickets. In this match, Kamindu Mendis was the highest run scorer for SL, who scored 50 runs in 44 balls, while skipper Charith Asalanka scored 20 runs in 19 balls.

In the bowling department, Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana picked up 2 wickets each. Sri Lanka will play its remaining match against India and will aim to finish their campaign on a winning note.

Sri Lanka’s Key Players: 

IND vs SL Super-4, Match 6 Probable Playing XI

India: Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Surya Kumar Yadav, N. Tilak Varma, Sanju Samson (WK), Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakaravarthy

Sri Lanka: Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis (WK), Kusal Perera, Dasun Shanaka, Charith Asalanka, Kamindu Mendis, Chamika Karunaratne, Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Theekshana, Dushmantha Chameera, Nuwan Thushara

Asia Cup 2025 Super-4 Point Table

Scoring pattern at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai:

The pitch at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium is generally favourable for batting. The surface of the pitch is lightly grassed, which can provide some initial assistance to fast bowlers, but over time, the pitch flattens out, providing good opportunities for spinners. 

India vs Sri Lanka Match 6 Prediction:

This match has no special significance for both team. Team India has reached the final, while the Sri Lankan team has been eliminated from the tournament. In this match, the Indian team can test their bench strength, which can help build a better strategy for the finals.

India vs Sri Lanka Asia Cup 2025 Squad:

India Squad: Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Surya Kumar Yadav, N. Tilak Varma, Sanju Samson (WK), Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakaravarthy, Jitesh Sharma, Rinku Singh, Arshdeep Singh, Harshit Rana

Sri Lanka Squad: Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis (WK), Kusal Perera, Dasun Shanaka, Charith Asalanka, Kamindu Mendis, Chamika Karunaratne, Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Theekshana, Dushmantha Chameera, Nuwan Thushara, Kamil Mishara, Dunith Wellalage, Nuwanidu Fernando, Janith Liyanage, Binura Fernando, Matheesha Pathirana

The Pakistan team will be under pressure heading into this game. They lost to India in the last game by 6 wickets despite a strong show with the bat. The bowling attack struggled to contain the Indians and threw away the game. They failed to defend the target of 172 runs. 

On the other hand, it is a must-win game for the Sri Lankan team. The Sri Lankan skipper will be upset with the 4-wicket loss against Bangladesh in the last game. They failed to defend the target of 169 runs.

In this article, we will explore PAK vs SL playing 11, pitch reports, and key players' stats.

PAK vs SL Super-4, Match 3 Match Details:

Pakistan's Team Preview:

Pakistan's Key players:

Sri Lanka Team Preview:

Pakistan: Sahibzada Farhan, Saim Ayub, Fakhar Zaman, Agha Salman, Mohammad Haris (WK), Mohammad Nawaz, Faheem Ashraf, Hussain Talat, Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, Abrar Ahmed

Scoring pattern at Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi:

The pitches in Abu Dhabi are generally balanced, offering equal opportunities to both batsmen and bowlers. Spin bowlers also have some assistance, especially in the middle overs. The last match played at this venue was between India and Oman, and the Indian team posted 188 runs; in reply, Oman managed to reach 167 runs, highlighting a good surface for batters.

Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Super-4, Match 3, Expert Opinion and Match Prediction:

Sri Lanka is expected to win this game. Sri Lanka won all three group matches and topped the Group B point table. However, they suffered defeat in a nail-biting contest against Bangladesh, but Sri Lanka's overall performance so far is good compared to the Pakistan team.

Pakistan's middle-order batsmen's inconsistency is their major concern. If Sri Lankan openers tackle the initial overs of Shaheen Afridi, Haris Rauf, they can post a good total, and their experienced bowling attack can restrict Pakistan.

Sri Lanka to win

We predict that Sri Lanka will win this Asia Cup 2025 match. Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis and Wanindu Hasaranga will be key players to watch out for.

A huge wicket for Afghanistan. They were quickly able to get rid of Sri Lanka's dangerous batter, Pathum Nissanka. The opener went back to the pavilion after making only 6 runs against 5 deliveries.

A back-of-the-length delivery from Azmatullah Omarzai forced the batter to make a mistake. Mujeeb Ur Rahman, with a diving effort, took a clinical catch. Like Afghanistan in the first innings of the match, Sri Lanka also lost their first wicket in the 3rd over of the innings. An action-packed match at Sheikh Zayed Stadium. After a highly entertaining first inning, Sri Lanka, who already got wins in the last couple of Asia Cup 2025 matches, went into the field with a bat to chase a target of 170 runs.

Nissanka could be the decisive person of the man because of his recent performances. Against Bangladesh he scored 50, and against Hong Kong he played a 68-run knock. In this match too, against Afghanistan, the batter was looking in fine touch; he even hit a boundary and perhaps was in a hurry to score runs at a faster pace.

Pathum Nissanka departed early in the match

When he saw the back of the length delivery, around the leg stump, he could not hold himself back. Azmatullah Omarzai lands this back of a length and around the leg, begging to be put away. Pathum Nissanka hooks it away, knowing that the short fine is up in the circle, but fails to keep it down and hits it from the bottom half of the bat straight at that fielder.

Mujeeb Ur Rahman, with fine reflexes, threw his body in front and took the ball before it touched the ground. The pace of the balls made the catch more difficult than it looked. Sri Lanka lost their first wicket for only 22 runs on the scoreboard. 

In the 11th fixture of the Asia Cup 2025, Sri Lanka will meet their newly built rivals, Afghanistan. SL vs AFG is scheduled to take place on Thursday at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium. The two teams have met on 8 occasions in the past, and Sri Lanka holds an advantage with 5 wins against Afghanistan.

After struggling for more than a decade, Sri Lanka is finally witnessing an uprising and an improvement in their quality of cricket. They currently stand at the top of the Group B point table with 2 wins, and their net run rate stands at +1.546. A win will guarantee Sri Lanka a confirmed spot in the next round.

Sri Lanka has started their campaign with a win against their arch-rivals, Bangladesh. It was a comfortable win for the team, where their batters played an important role while chasing the score. Pathum Nissanka was the standout performer for Sri Lanka, scoring 50 runs off 34 balls. 

On the other hand, Hong Kong has been part of 2 fixtures in the tournament, and unfortunately, they have not won a single game. It has been a failure on the part of the players, and now the team has bleak chances to reach the next round in the tournament.
