New Delhi. In the final match of Asia Cup-2022, a very exciting match was seen between Pakistan and Sri Lanka. There were many such moments during the match which will become part of the discussion on social media. Meanwhile, Pakistan captain Babar Azam won the toss and invited Sri Lanka to bat first and decided to bowl himself. The Sri Lankan players who landed on the crease thrashed the Pakistani bowlers. Let us tell you that Bhanuka Rajapaksa and Hasaranga, who came out to bat from the side of the Sri Lankan team, gave a target of 171 runs. But, after this, you can guess the plight of the Pakistani team that came out to bat only by the fact that the team was reduced to just 147 runs. So in this way the Sri Lankan team was able to win the Asia Cup after eight years.
Nothing special was the start of the Sri Lankan team
On the other hand, if we talk about the early performance of the Sri Lankan team, then it was not very good. The pressure on the Sri Lankan team had reached its peak when half the team had left the pavilion for 58 runs. Even Kusal Mendis, who showed Jauhar with his bat in every match in the Asia Cup 2022, could not walk and walk after losing his wicket in the third over. After this Pathum Nisanka’s bat came but he could not stay on the crease for long and went on with a partnership of 21 runs in partnership with Ghansang de Silva.
After which the Sri Lankan team continued to take wickets. It seemed that now the match has gone out of the hands of the team. The first 9 overs were very challenging for the Sri Lankan team. But, Hasranga, who landed in the field, created a stir in the Pakistani camps while raining fours and sixes. So after going through all the ups and downs in this way, the Kshilankai team managed to score 171 runs in the stipulated 20 overs.
How was Pakistan’s performance?
However, compared to the Sri Lankan team, the start of the Pakistani team was better in many ways. Captain Babar Azam, who came out to bat for the Pakistan team, went on after scoring 22 runs. At the same time, Fakar Zaman got bowled on the very first ball. After taking wickets in this way, the pressure on the Pakistani team kept increasing. However, amidst this heavy pressure, Mohammad Rizwan and Iftikhar Ahmed, who came to the crease, shared a 71-run partnership while handling the innings and took the team to 93 runs. But, even after playing 13 overs, there was no momentum in the Pakistan team. Ahmed and Rizwana, from whom Pakistani fans had high hopes, also could not contribute much in winning the team.
However, even in this difficult time, Mohammad Rizwan continued to show his bat on the crease, but Hasaranga, who was bowling for the Sri Lankan team, took the title of Asia Cup-2022 to his team by taking three wickets of the opposing team Pakistan. At the same time, after Pakistan’s crushing defeat, people are seen making fun of Pakistan on social media. Let us show you some funny reactions next.

#AsiaCup2022Final #PAKvSL #PakvsSL This match is evenly poised. 103 to win from the last 10, and Sri Lanka is behind in their over rate so Pakistan might get a couple of overs with field restrictions pic.twitter.com/LjsPJcyQ9c

“Sri Lanka won by fielding and Pakistan lost by fielding”. What a game by young team from Sri Lanka, they are best in class in Batting, bowling and fielding. They won the match so easily. Must deserved win for young boys of Sri Lanka. Bad luck for Pakistan.
