Asia Cup 2022: Bhanuka Rajapaksa hails 'great win' as Sri Lanka beat Pakistan to win title

Sri Lanka's cricket has proved a point to the world with their sixth Asia Cup title after his unbeaten 71 set up a commanding 23-run win over Pakistan. Fast bowler Pramod Madushan (4-34) and Wanindu Hasaranga (3-27) shared seven wickets between them to bowl out Pakistan for 147 while chasing 171 in Dubai. Earlier the left-handed Rajapaksa put on a key 58-run stand for the sixth wicket with Hasaranga, who hit 36, to help Sri Lanka to 170-6 after being in trouble at 58-5. Sri Lanka, who had to abandon plans to host the competition due to political unrest, bounced back from an embarrassing opening defeat by Afghanistan to win the tournament, a curtain-raiser for next month's T20 World Cup in Australia. "We always wanted to show the whole world (what we can do)," said man of the match Rajapaksa. "Some decades back we had some sort of aggression in our side and we wanted to create those moments again. As a unit we are doing fantastically well at the moment and we look forward to the World Cup."

Sri Lanka surprise, Virat Kohli comeback: Five Asia Cup talking points

Sri Lanka beat Pakistan by 23 runs in Dubai on Sunday to clinch their sixth Asia Cup. AFP Sport looks at five things we learned from the six-nation tournament, which was a precursor for next month's T20 World Cup in Australia. Pundits gave Sri Lanka little chance of making the Super Four after an embarrassingly one-sided opening defeat against Afghanistan, but five successive wins took them to Asia Cup glory. Sri Lanka beat favourites India in the Super Four and then got past Pakistan twice to give the young team confidence going into the T20 World Cup in Australia, where they will have to progress through a qualifying round. But Bhanuka Rajapaksa, who hit an unbeaten 71 in the final, said he believed a rejuvenated Sri Lanka could ride the momentum of their Asia Cup triumph and go all the way in the T20 showpiece.

Watch: Gautam Gambhir Poses With Sri Lanka's Flag After Dasun Shanaka's Side Wins Asia Cup

Sri Lanka came up with a performance of a lifetime as the side punched above its weight to win the Asia Cup 2022. The Dasun Shanaka-led side defeated Pakistan by 23 runs in the summit clash to win the Asia Cup for the sixth time. Sri Lanka displayed a perfect all-round performance to win the contest and it is important to remember that the side were reeling at 58/5 at one stage, but owing to Bhanuka Rajapaksa's knock of 71 runs, Sri Lanka posted 170/6 in 20 overs. Then, the side bundled out Pakistan for 147, winning the contest by 23 runs.

Sri Lanka vs Pakistan: Dasun Shanaka Reveals How CSK Inspired Sri Lanka's Asia Cup Final Win vs Pakistan

The Asia Cup 2022 in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) saw a heavy trend in the favour of teams chasing, making the toss in the final a crucial one to win. The odds were already in favour of Pakistan when Babar Azam called it right and opted to field. Things got worse for Sri Lanka when they were down to 58/5 in the 9th over. But from then on, Bhanuka Rajapaksa, Wanindu Hasaranga, Pramod Madushan and an inspired display of fielding saw them register a rather comfortable win over Pakistan to lift their sixth Asia Cup title.

Asia Cup win lifts spirits of battered Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka burst into spontaneous celebrations on Sunday as the South Asian nation won the Asia Cup tournament in the shortest form of cricket in Dubai. Fire crackers burst, cars honked and fans danced at the seafront Galle Face promenade in the capital, where the tournament was televised live on a giant screen. "This is a super surprise," said Mohamed Thimal, 24, who watched the game at Galle Face. "We didn't expect a win because we have not won a tournament recently." "Very happy, very happy," shouted Jameel Irshad, who was celebrating with friends at Galle Face, which until July was the launch pad for toppling president Gotabaya Rajapaksa over economic mismanagement. The country is enduring hyper inflation, lengthy power blackouts and is facing acute shortages of food, fuel and medicines after running out of foreign exchange to pay for imports since late last year.
