Last Encounter Between Two Sides
Sri Lanka will be hoping for a repeat of when they defeated India in the Asia Cup final in July, but they will have to win both their remaining matches to keep alive hopes of making the semi-finals. Having suffered losses to both Pakistan and Australia early in their campaign, Sri Lanka cannot afford two more defeats as they seek to carry on and qualify for further action.
