The stakes are set high as Pakistan prepares to square off against Sri Lanka in the Super Fours clash of the Asia Cup 2023 at the R. Premadasa Stadium this Thursday.

Dubbed as a virtual semi-final, the match promises high octane cricket, with the winner set to face India in Sunday's grand finale.

Pakistan, in their journey to this crucial juncture, emerged victorious against Nepal during the group stage, while rain played spoilsport, washing away their opportunity to battle it out against India.

However, they demonstrated a commendable display of cricket, trouncing Bangladesh in the Super Fours stage, only to face a crushing defeat by India by an astonishing 228-run margin. Looking to shake off the recent setback, Pakistan will aim to recalibrate and deliver a strong performance against Sri Lanka.

On the other hand, Sri Lanka boasts of a winning streak in the group stages, having defeated both Bangladesh and Afghanistan. Their momentum persisted as they outclassed Bangladesh once more in the Super Fours, though they couldn't sustain the winning rhythm against India. 

However, being on their home turf and acquainted with the playing conditions, the Sri Lankan team will be keen to regain their winning momentum and cement their position in the finale.
