India suffered a sixth wicket loss against Sri Lanka as the Asia Cup 2022 favourites slump to their second consecutive defeat of the Super Four stages in Dubai on Tuesday. India earlier suffered a five-wicket loss to Pakistan on Sunday.
India had two highlight performances on the day in captain Rohit Sharma’s 41-ball 72 with the bat and Yuzvendra Chahal’s 3/34 in the second innings. Openers Kusal Mendis (57) and Pathum Nissanka (52) constructed the base for the 174-run chase before Dashun Shanaka (33*) and Bhanuka Rajapaksa (25*) ensured Sri Lanka win. Earlier, Dilshan Madushanka (3/24), Chamika Karunaratne (2/27) and Shanaka (2/26) were the pick among bowlers for the winning side.

India has a lot of concerns to address and they will be very disappointed with this result. Many areas to improve on before the World Cup. A special effort by Sri Lanka though. #IndvsSL

India have been short of fire in the end-overs. No fangs. It is a concern

Bhuvi might as well hold up a neon sign above his head before each ball saying ‘full, outside off’. Ridiculous over. Game over. Tournament over. #INDvSL #INDvsSL #AsiaCup2022
