Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka, Asia Cup 2023: Sri Lanka Advance To Super 4 Breaking Afghanistan Hearts

Mohammad Nabi's game changing 65 off 32 balls came to nothing as Sri Lanka pulled off a thrilling two-run win over an audacious Afghanistan to qualify for the Super4s of the Asia Cup in Lahore on Tuesday. Kusal Mendis' high-quality 92 had pushed Sri Lanka to 291 for eight at the Gadaffi Stadium. Due to their inferior run rate, Afghanistan needed to chase down 292 in 37.1 overs and Nabi put them on the cusp of a famous win by smashing the fastest half-century by an Afghanistan batter in ODIs. In what turned out to be a riveting finish, the qualifying equation came down to 15 runs needed off seven balls and Rashid Khan increased the heart rate on either side of the dressing rooms by finding three fours off left-arm spinner Dunith Wellalage in the 37th over.
