View below topics in this post

Team India made things difficult for itself in the ongoing Asia Cup 2022 after being outplayed by arch-rivals Pakistan in their first game on September 4 (Sunday). Virat Kohli’s magnificent 60-run knock went in vain. The same thing happened when Rohit Sharma’s 72-run knock went in vain as Sri Lanka defeated India by 6 wickets.

India now has very slim chances of qualifying for the finals of the Asia Cup. After the defeat, India was knocked out from Asia Cup 2022? against Sri Lanka, India is one step closer to going home. There is a chance if

Explained: How Can India Still Make It To The 2022 Asia Cup Final?

  1. Afghanistan beat Pakistan.
  2. India must beat Afghanistan by a huge margin.
  3. Sri Lanka must then beat Pakistan.
  4. And finally, the net run rate should be greater than Afghanistan and Pakistan combined.

If all these things happen according to plan, India will qualify for the finals and face Sri Lanka in the finals of the 2022 Asia Cup.

The outcome put the Men in Blue’s chances of reaching the Asia Cup finals at the hands of the other teams. Additionally, it meant that India’s captain Rohit Sharma’s brilliant 72-run knock was in vain as the islanders successfully chased down 174 with one ball remaining.

Sri Lanka, at one stage, was struggling to the point where they needed 21 runs off 12 balls. They scored 14 runs off the 19th over bowled by Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Arshdeep Singh made an effort to hold on to seven runs in the final over but was unsuccessful.

This is an excellent opportunity for Team India to learn from their mistakes ahead of the World Cup in Australia later this year. As skipper Rohit Sharma stated, “We are still looking for answers.” These were two back-to-back games of close finishes. I have to give a lot of credit to Arshdeep for bowling at the death and for the way he bowled. Chahal and Bhuvi are seniors and have been doing it for a while. I need to get answers from the younger ones. ”

Let’s hope that everything goes in the favor of India so that India can qualify for the finals of the Asia Cup 2022.
