Asia Cup 2022 Final, Pakistan vs Sri Lanka: Interesting statistical trivia
A title clash though is a very different cup of tea from a league stage or Super 4 match. The pressure on the players in a big final is much more. Add to that the fact that the world will be looking at the Lankans today to see if they can take a big step forward in their team rebuilding process and you know that Dasun Shanaka and co. will be very keenly aware of just how much is at stake here for them. Pakistan on the other hand are being tagged the favourites, despite losing to the Lankans in the last Super 4 match.
"Don't Know About Any Urvashi": Naseem Shah's Hilarious Response To Question On Bollywood Actor

Sri Lanka vs Pakistan, Asia Cup Final: When And Where To Watch Live Telecast, Live Streaming
Sri Lanka and Pakistan would be squaring off in the final of Asia Cup on Sunday evening at the Dubai International Stadium. Sri Lanka did not lose a single match in the Super 4 stage while Pakistan lost only one and that loss came against Dasun Shanaka-led Sri Lanka in a match that was pretty much a dress rehearsal for the summit clash. However, it is important to remember that for Friday's contest against Sri Lanka, Pakistan had rested Naseem Shah and he would be back for the Babar Azam-led side. The toss has played a crucial role in this Asia Cup as well, and Sri Lanka have won all their matches in the ongoing tournament when they have chased. Their only loss in this edition came in the group stage against Afghanistan and it was when they batted first.
Asia Cup 2022 Final: Underdogs Sri Lanka face favourites Pakistan
Team India's early exit may have disrupted plans of organisers but finalists Pakistan & Lanka have lit up the tournament with their passionate brand of cricketDUBAI: Every time the fixtures for the Asia Cup are drawn, it all about making up for the lack of India-Pakistan bilateral cricket.

India are the marquee team, always. The market forces, broadcasters and caretakers of the game bank on India's presence right through the tournament. This time, though, there is no Indian team for the last four days of the tournament. The buzz has fizzled out real fast. It's sort of an anti-climax for the stakeholders.
