Asia Cup 2023 is heading towards the super four stage with only one group stage match left to be played. But still some vacant spot is left to grab. In that context, the next game is pretty important for group B.
This game will confirm the two teams from this group. This match will see a contest between Afghanistan and Sri Lanka at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. Sri Lanka won the first game against Bangladesh and need to make sure that if they lose, it should not be by a big margin, while with Afghanistan, it is totally opposite.
