Asia Cup 2023: India in Final, Qualification Scenarios For Pakistan, Sri Lanka

Rohit Sharma-led Team India have qualified for the final of Asia Cup 2023

India beat Sri Lanka by 41 runs in Colombo on Tuesday in the Super 4 tie to seal their berth in the final

The summit clash of Asia Cup 2023 will be played on September 17 in Colombo

India’s win over Sri Lanka also eliminated Bangladesh who have lost both their Super 4 fixtures

Therefore, only Pakistan and Sri Lanka remain in the race to join India in the final

Sri Lanka and Pakistan face off in a virtual knockout tie on September 14, the winning team will reach the final

In case the SL vs PAK fixture is washed out due to rain, both teams will reach 3 points each

The team which will have the better run rate will qualify for the final, and Sri Lanka have a superior NRR of -0.2

Therefore, Pakistan need to win their match against Sri Lanka and hope rain stays away to join India in the final

Fun fact: India and Pakistan have never met in an Asia Cup final
