🏏India vs Sri Lanka, Final , Asia Cup 2023, Colombo 🏏 - Page 3

Seeing as I'm being bombarded with requests for weather updates, here it goes...It's sunny! (for now).

Jaspreet: "I hope Thakur plays and becomes MOM today. He has potential and can deliver. If not Washington won't be a bad replacement. Tilak should play instead of Rahul."

In terms of team news, Maheesh Theekshana is missing and so is Axar Patel for India. Washington Sundar has been called up as cover.

Rain threat looms but reserve day in place

Thanks for the tag, Madz!❤️

Go bluee team 💙💙💙

2.20pm Local: The toss is about 10 minutes away, but while we wait why not checkout Sanjay Manjrekar's preview of some of the key points ahead of the final. Anil Kumble and Farveez Maharoof meanwhile discuss how exactly Sri Lanka might go about replacing the excellent Theekshana.

Mustafa Moudi: "In Super 4 Stage - Pakistan defeated Bangladesh, who won against India, who have beaten Sri Lanka, who were victorious against Pakistan. Great Cycle !!"

In terms of team news, Maheesh Theekshana is missing and so is Axar Patel for India. Washington Sundar has been called up as cover.

Jaspreet: "I hope Thakur plays and becomes MOM today. He has potential and can deliver. If not Washington won't be a bad replacement. Tilak should play instead of Rahul."

Diyath knows what it's about today: "The fairytale for Sri Lanka would be if the top and middle order both struggle today, but Shanaka finally gets back in form to beat India with the bat"

aaron: ""but more pertinently a result of the opposition committing crucial errors in pressure situations." - really? one mistake from one team should not overshadow how relentless this "bits and pieces" sri lankan team has been this entire tournament" --- Fair point, Aaron, was in no way trying to diminish Sri Lanka's efforts these past few weeks. But that error was absolutely monumental in the context of them qualifying.
