All the fans are desperately waiting for the upcoming World Test championship final, where India will be squaring off against Australia at The Oval. The marquee event will determine who will bag the coveted ICC trophy in the longest format of the game. With only two days left for the match, everyone is eager to witness Virat Kohli's performance as the 34-year-old has been breathing fire with his bat. The former India skipper, who was struggling for runs, ended his 1205-day century drought in the Test and smashed his 29th ton against Australia in March.
Left with no option after Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan backed out of their proposed 'Hybrid Model', hosts Pakistan may pull out of the Asia Cup in September. According to the 'Hybrid Model' proposed by Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chief Najam Sethi, Pakistan were to conduct 3 to 4 games of the Asia Cup in their country, while the rest of the matches involving India could be held at a neutral venue. The idea was floated after India refused to travel to Pakistan because of security concerns. However, it has become clear now that Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan have all backed the BCCI's push for moving the tournament out of Pakistan.
After losing the first ODI against Afghanistan by 6 wickets, Sri Lanka look to regroup and prevent an early series defeat as the two teams square off in the second ODI on Sunday. The first match truly showed what the Afghans are capable of in the 50-over format, especially in a World Cup year. It was Afghanistan's second-highest run-chase in the format on the international circuit. Sri Lanka haven't managed to get their combination right for a while now. That would be their prime focus against Afghanistan in the second ODI. (LIVE Scorecard)
