Can India still qualify for Asia Cup final after Super 4 loss to Sri Lanka? (Sportstar)

India in Asia Cup 2022 Super Four: ohit Sharma's team India can still qualify for the final should the results in the upcoming matches work in its favour.

It will also need to beat Afghanistan by a good margin on Thursday. The two-time defending champion now faces a situation where its qualification for the final depends on results - Pakistan’s to be precise. India’s road to the final now depends on Pakistan’s results in its remaining Super Four matches against Afghanistan (Wednesday) and Sri Lanka (Friday).

Asia Cup 2022: India still in it, but only just (The Indian Express)

Asia Cup 2022 Scenario: With Sri Lanka already with two Super Four wins, that will confirm a Pakistan-Lanka title clash.

Needless to say, they need to beat Afghanistan on Thursday, that too by as convincing a margin as possible. One thing possibly going in India’s favour is that their two defeats have come on the penultimate balls of the matches, and a big win over Afghanistan can still put them back in the equation, if other results go their way. That will seal the Lankans’ spot in the final with three consecutive wins, and the other three teams with one win each, with net run rate being the deciding criterion.

Asia Cup, Super 4 | Sri Lanka wins toss, opts to bowl against India (The Hindu)

India: Rohit Sharma (c), KL Rahul, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (w), Deepak Hooda, Hardik Pandya, Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, ...

Rohit and Suryakumar got together with India in trouble at 13 for two. It came down to the last over, bowled by Arshdeep Singh, with Sri Lanka needing seven to win. Earlier, Sri Lanka grabbed wickets at regular intervals to limit India to a par score. It took a brilliant over from leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal to pull India back into the contest. Only a few favourable results, and an India win in its last Super 4 match (against Afghanistan on Thursday) can allow the side to progress to the final. Chasing 174, Sri Lanka crossed the finish line with one ball to spare.

Poor strategy, underperforming personnel; India's horror show in ... (News9 Live)

Going by what has transpired in the Asia Cup so far, India needs to answer several tricky questions quickly if they want to improve upon their performance ...

In the match against Sri Lanka, Rohit Sharma scored 9 boundaries – 5 fours and 4 towering sixes. In the IPL, many times we have seen a slow start only to get converted into massive scores thanks to a number of sixes towards the end. If he really needed to hit in the air, it was always advisable to hit along the shorter boundaries and get a six in 68 metres rather than getting out on an 82-metre hit towards the longer boundary. The rest of the Indian batting could manage only 8 boundaries combined, with fours and 3 sixes. While Rohit Sharma provided a solid start and joined with Suryakumar Yadav to score quickly. He enjoyed good success against Pakistan as the fourth seamer in India's first match of the Asia Cup but came apart against the same side and later against Sri Lanka as the third fast bowling option. The Men in Blue lost to Pakistan and New Zealand and the team crashed out at the super six stage. While there is no doubt Rahul is a class player, it is pointless to take an out-of-form player to the World Cup and hope he gains form during the tournament. Opposition teams always have a bowler to target, not so in international cricket. In the previous match against Pakistan too he was out playing a reverse sweep shot that was never his strong point. The Indian management should take a cue from this example. The moment he was their third seamer, there were issues with the bowling.

Asia Cup debacle proves India need to play fearless cricket ... (Onmanorama)

Defending champions India were staring at an early exit from the Asia Cup after suffering a six-wicket loss to Sri Lanka in Dubai on Tuesday night.

Also the selectors and team management need to look at developing a team with T20 specialists. India had notched up series wins over New Zealand (3-0), West Indies (3-0) and Sri Lanka (3-0) at home, while getting the better of Ireland (2-0), England (2-1) and the West Indies (4-1) in away series after the group stage exit in the last T20 World Cup. However, the Indians failed to capitalise on an excellent platform and ended up with 181/7 against Pakistan in the opening Super 4 encounter. Chasing 174, the Lankan openers Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Mendis got their team off to a flier. However, just as in the Pakistan game, the Indians failed to finish strongly as they lost wickets in a heap. Defending champions India were staring at an early exit from the Asia Cup after suffering a six-wicket loss to Sri Lanka in Dubai on Tuesday night.

India had set Sri Lanka a target of 174 runs and the Lankans chased it down with 6 wickets in hand and a ball to spare. India would now need Sri Lanka to beat Pakistan and that too by a big margin. But Rohit Sharma's team can still qualify for the final. The Indian cricket team suffered its second straight loss in the Super 4 stage of the Asia Cup 2022 on Tuesday night as it failed to defend a target in excess of 170 runs yet again.

Sri Lanka are best placed at the moment, but they are not in the final yet.

The only way they can fall short is if they lose to Pakistan, and Afghanistan beat both Pakistan and India. If Pakistan beat Afghanistan, both India and Afghanistan will be eliminated. If Pakistan beat Afghanistan, they will qualify for the final along with Sri Lanka. India's only chance of making the final is if Sri Lanka finish with three wins, and the three other teams have one win each. If Sri Lanka lose to Pakistan, then three teams will be level on two wins, and net run-rate will come into play. If Afghanistan lose to Pakistan, they will be eliminated [along with India].

After the Asia Cup, India have a home-series against Australia and South-Africa, during which they will have to sort out their issues. More subscription to our online content can only help us achieve the goals of offering you even better and more relevant content. Business Standard has always strived hard to provide up-to-date information and commentary on developments that are of interest to you and have wider political and economic implications for the country and the world. So, these experiments certainly didn't help the likes of Karthik, Bishnoi and Ashwin, who would want to have more clarity on their roles going forward. On the other hand, Arshdeep Singh also did well in patches and needs to be more consistent with his length and lines. The experienced campaigner Bhuvneshwar Kumar looked okay at the top but in the two consecutive games, a poor 19th over from him has cost India the game. History of cricket shows that too much chopping and changing in team never helps and India's continued 'experiments' in the Asia Cup also proved it once again. It was also unusual to see India travel to Dubai with only three fast-bowlers in the 15-man squad. Also, Hooda's success has mostly come as a top-order batter but in Asia Cup, he was given the job to finish the innings. On the other hand, Deepak Hooda was prefered over Dinesh Karthik in the last few games because he can bowl a few overs and gives captain and extra option but he didn't bowl at all. If Pakistan beat Afghanistan on Wednesday in Sharjah, India would be officially knocked out of the competition before they take the field for the final game. The Men in Blue are now dependent on other results going their way to make the summit clash.
