Sri Lanka and Afghanistan will be squaring off against each other in the first match of the Super 4s stage of the ongoing Asia Cup at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Saturday.

Despite all odds, the rise and rise of Afghanistan in T20Is
Before the start of the ongoing edition of the Asia Cup, most cricket experts were expecting Afghanistan to put up strong performances - and they lived up to that billing - beating both Sri Lanka (by 8 wickets) and then Bangladesh (by 7 wickets) to become the first team to qualify for the Super Four stage. The Afghans, who are currently ranked 10th on the ICC T20I team rankings, will now be up against Sri Lanka in the first Super Four match on Saturday, September 3 after the island nation clinched a thrilling two-wicket win over Bangladesh on Thursday to knock the Bangla Tigers out of the tournament. The two rather big wins against Sri Lanka and Bangladesh (both ranked higher than Afghanistan in the T20 team rankings at 8 & 9 respectively) can't really be called upsets, considering just how much the Afghanistan T20I team has steadily improved.
Asia Cup 2022: Will the knock against Hong Kong become the turning point Virat Kohli has been searching for?
Ask Virat Kohli. Once the best batsman in the world, now without a century for almost 3 years. The unbeaten 59 off 44 balls on Wednesday at the Asia Cup would have been very welcome runs for Kohli, even though they came against Hong Kong, who are ranked 20th in the ICC T20I team rankings. Runs under the belt always gives a batter confidence and prepares him or her for harder battles ahead. This was Kohli’s 31st T20I fifty overall - he has the maximum number of half centuries in T20I cricket overall - and though his last fifty in the shortest format was scored only 4 games ago (for him), it was over 6 months ago - on February 18, 2022.
