IND vs SL Asia Cup 2022, Super 4 Match 3: Today's match players list, teams & umpires

India vs Sri Lanka, Asia Cup 2022 — Can the Men in Blue get the better of Sri Lanka?

Team India take on Sri Lanka in a must-win Super 4 clash of the Asia Cup 2022 in Dubai on Tuesday, September 6. The Men in Blue headed into the tournament as one of the favorites. However, they now need to beat Sri Lanka to stay in contention for a place in the final.

India find themselves in a tough position after losing to Pakistan in their first Super 4 match. The game against the arch-rivals began with much promise for India as their openers added 50 in brisk time. However, once the partnership was broken, things kept going downhill for them. Virat Kohli top-scored with an impressive 60 off 44. However, he did not find much support from the rest.

The shot selection of Rishabh Pant, in particular, was questionable considering India had lost some quick wickets. They showed some fight on the bowling front, but it wasn’t good enough for them to defend a total of 181. Rohit Sharma and Co. will need to lift themselves to stay alive in the competition.
