Asia Cup has put India in a tricky position on the Super 4s points table. They are currently third amongst the four teams, with 0 points after 1 match and a NRR of -0.126.
Sri Lanka lead the points table with 2 points (1 win in 1 game so far) and a NRR of +0.589. Pakistan who also have 1 win from 1 game played so far are in second place, behind SL only on NRR (+0.126).
What this effectively means is that tonight's Super 4 clash between India and Sri Lanka in Dubai becomes a must-win match in a way for Rohit Sharma and co.
After tonight's match vs SL, India will have only one Super 4 game left to play and that will be against Afghanistan on Thursday, September 8.
