We have seen everything in this Asia Cup 2025 before this match, and only a super-over was awaited; we saw that too in this match. The venue for this match was the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Eventually, India beat Sri Lanka in the Super Over of the final Super-fours match in the Asia Cup 2025.
Sri Lanka’s captain Charith Asalanka won the toss and decided his team would field first on this wicket. They made one change in their starting eleven from the last game, as Janith Liyanage got a place in the starting 11, replacing Chamika Karunaratne. India did the same as they did during their last match of the group stage. Arshdeep Singh and Harshit Rana started in place of Bumrah and Shivam Dube.
