FOUR! Nissanka gets a thick inside edge as the ball swings in sharply and runs away to fine-leg for a single. Length ball on the pads and Nissanka taps this on leg side. de Silva punches this length ball between cover and point for a boundary. Gunathilaka is off the mark with a single off the third ball he faces. Pitched up and it moves into the left-hander to beat his defence and clatter into the stumps. A bit of confusion in the middle as Hasaranga guides one off the backfoot to mid-on and hares for a single but is sent back halfway down the pitch. Goes for the slog sweep, gets an inside edge onto his pads and the ball loops up but falls short of the bowler. Stays low and puts this yorker away through the covers with a jab. Hasaranga pushes one to long-off for a single and that’s 100 up for SL in 13.1 overs. Karunaratne shuffles across a bit and the ball goes off his thigh for four leg-byes. The ball pops out and goes over the rope for a maximum and Shadab is down on the ground and seems to have hurt himself.

Three times these two teams have met in the final of this tournament. Their first win came in 2000 when they beat Sri Lanka by 39 runs in the final in Dhaka despite the latter's captain Marvan Atapattu scoring a century in the chase. But this pitch is one of the best in this Asia Cup. As a team you want to reach the final and win it. Pakistan then go into the team huddle while the Sri Lankans go back inside. 142kph, tailing in and then seaming in, it clips - or rather singes - Mendis's pads before slamming into the stumps. He makes the ball pitch in the batter's half of the pitch and Nissanka leans into a glorious drive. He hasn't really been able to get too much strike in the last two overs, in fact he was not on strike at all in the 6th over, and has made in 24 in 15. Sri Lanka finally have a partnership going. 16 runs from the 17th, Sri Lanka 136/6 Pakistan vs Sri Lanka, Asia Cup 2022 Final Live Score: Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf ensured that Pakistan dominated the powerplay, with Dhananjaya de Silva seemingly the only Sri Lankan batter who could come to terms with the searing pace.

Oh this means the world to a team that most pundits would have had as their weakest of the five competing nations in this Asia Cup. Had confidence in the talent in the team. Sri Lanka cricket were on a slide: starting with the retirement of some big names in 2015, to the constant chopping and changing, to the musical chairs with the captaincy, to getting wiped out even at home. We wanted to spend some time in the crease and that helped in getting 170. Mendis: Very very happy to get the runs. The authorities are taking forever to set the stage up, but the Sri Lankan fans in the stands and the Papare band just refuse to get tired. I look to bowl at the stumps in these conditions and that is why I am successful. The last ball six and the last over helped us with the momentum and this is a game of momentum. I love to bowl in the subcontinent. I want to thank the Sri Lankan cricket board and the selectors as well. We were 100% today, credit to the players and the coaching staff. Our fielding wasn't up to the mark and the batting couldn't finish it off well.

Meanwhile, Pakistan won the toss and elected to field against Sri Lanka in the final. Captain Dasun Shanaka said he would’ve bowled first had he won his fifth toss in a row, but was also happy to bat first in the final. Pakistan pacer Shahnawaz Dahani proved himself to be a wonderful ambassador of his national cricket team when he gifted his jersey to a Sri Lanka before the final at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

Bhanuka Rajapaksa formed the backbone of the Sri Lankan innings, rescuing his side from 58 for 5 with an unbeaten 45-ball 71 that saw them post 170. It was ...

It wasn't until the sixth ball that the innings even began with the left-arm seamer starting off with a no-ball and following it up with four wides, one of which went down to the boundary for an extra four. There might never have been a game that saw such a contrast at the start of each bowling performance. Sri Lanka caught like a side possessed, too, whereas the only montage you could make of Pakistan's fielding would be about their sloppiness. Madushan's two-in-two to remove Babar and Fakhar Zaman set the tone. Off the fifth ball of his innings in Rauf's scintillating sixth over, the bowler sent down a near unplayable leg-stump yorker at the in-form Rajapaksa. Most memorable of all though, was the way he took on Naseem at the end, a bowler who had begun so sensationally in the Powerplay. What followed was an innings of high class, that saw through a period of consolidation while Hasaranga at the other end took on a more proactive role. It made a beeline for the stumps, at searing speed, and the hapless Mendis could do little about it. Babar Azam's side never quite sure how to pace their innings, with an unrelenting Sri Lanka refusing to let them grind through the gears.

Pakistan were stifled through the first half and then blown away in the second.

SL vs PAK Live Score, Asia Cup 2022 Final: Pakistan skipper Babar Azam won the toss and decided to field first in the Asia Cup 2022 final against Sri Lanka ...

Says that they had encouragement from their coaches and they won it and they feel very happy. They did not take many wickets post that but kept the flow of run in check, which only kept adding pressure on the batters. Adds that they took away the momentum from them in both the innings. Mohammad Rizwan and Iftikhar Ahmed put on 71 runs together for the third wicket but they failed to score them quickly and that kept creeping the run rate up. Pakistan lost two quick wickets in the initial few overs of the chase and then they tried to steady the ship but failed to score runs freely. Adds that they were spot on in the field and he is happy to put on such a performance in the finals. Adds that they put them under pressure at key moments and won the match. On being asked about the toss, he says that if a team thinks about the toss, they are not a champion team and that's what Sri Lanka did. He says that when he came out to bat they had lost 5 wickets and he spoke to Bhanuka Rajapaksa about getting close to 150 and he knew his role while batting. Dasun Shanaka the skipper of Sri Lanka starts by thanking the fans, and he dedicates the trophy to everyone in Sri Lanka. Adds that their fielding was not up to the mark and the middle order batting need to do well. Further says that there are ups and downs in the game and they need to take it positively.
