Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Asia Cup 2023 Live Score: Tensions building here
The tensions are building high here. Sri Lanka is still the favourite but Pakistan is in with a sniff. It will be interesting to see what Babar does here will he finish off IftiKhar or keep one more over of Shaheen? Right now seems like he is going with the young Zaman Khan it is getting intense out here. After 36 overs SL 233/5.
This has come to the final phase here and Afridi has taken the ball. Iftikhar will probably not finish his quota. Shadab who did not bowl well finished his spell which is something Babar has to rethink after the game if he has applied the right tactics in the right phases of the game. After 40.2 overs SL 243/5
