At least the Asia Cup final… Irfan rubs salt in the Pakistanis’ wounds

New Delhi. The Asia Cup has reached its final stage. The teams of India and Sri Lanka (IND vs SL) will clash for the title on Sunday (September 17) at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo. Team India has won the tournament 7 times while the current champions Sri Lanka have captured the trophy 6 times. India booked their ticket to the final by defeating Pakistan while Sri Lanka entered the final for the 11th time after defeating Pakistan in a thrilling match. Irfan Pathan is very excited about the final between India and Sri Lanka. Meanwhile, Irfan took Pakistan by the hand and said that at least now the final will not be one-sided.

In fact, when India and Pakistan faced each other in the Super 4, Babar Azam’s army defeated Team India easily. India beat Pakistan by 228 runs to enter the final with pride. While Sri Lanka showed amazing courage against India and Pakistan. Sri Lanka had earlier restricted India to 213 while recording a thrilling 2-wicket win against Pakistan and dashing Babar’s army’s dream of making the Asia Cup final.

‘At least it won’t be one-sided’
Irfan Pathan tweeted, ‘It will be good for India to play the final against Sri Lanka. At least it won’t be one-sided. Chinaman spinner Kuldeep Yadav bowled brilliantly for India in the Super 4 match against Pakistan. Kuldeep took 5 wickets while Virat Kohli and KL Rahul played century innings. Against the target of 357 runs given by India, the Pakistan team could not even play 50 overs and were bundled out for 128 runs.

Sri Lanka did wonders
Sri Lanka was not considered a contender for the final in this tournament. Many important players of the Lankan team were injured. Despite this, Dasun Shanaka’s team has entered the final by performing brilliantly. Young spinner Dunith Welleg took 5 wickets against India while against Pakistan he took the wicket of captain Babar Azam. In batting, Charit Aslanka, Kusal Mendis and Dhananjay played an important role in the victory against Pakistan.
