It’s time for yet another India-Pakistan clash. This time, these two arch-rivals will face each other in the third game of the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup 2023. The R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo will play host to this exciting encounter on Sunday (September 10).

Pakistan topped Group A and continued their brilliant run in the competition by winning their first game of the Super Four stage. They beat Bangladesh comprehensively by seven wickets and will be high on confidence on Sunday.

Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah picked up four and three wickets, respectively, to knock over Bangladesh on 193. In reply, Imam-ul-Haq (78) and Mohammed Rizwan (63*) hit fifties as they chased down the total in the 40th over with seven wickets in hand.

India, on the other hand, qualified for the Super Fours after winning their last group game. They walked past Nepal to book a place in the next stage of the Asia Cup.

Mohammed Siraj and Ravindra Jadeja grabbed three wickets each as the bowlers did a decent job of bundling out Nepal on 230. Skipper Rohit Sharma (74*) and Shubman Gill (67*) hit unbeaten fifties as India chased down the revised target to register a 10-wicket win over Nepal.
