Pakistan Form

Pakistan have been below their very best but have done well to reach the final after losing their opening fixture to India. They defeated Hong Kong and then India and Afghanistan in the Super 4 stage.

The final was decided early so when Pakistan played Sri Lanka on Friday, the final was already set to be between them. Pakistan however failed to grab the edge after being bowled out for 121 runs in Dubai.

Sri Lanka won with three overs to spare and by five wickets.

Pakistan Injuries & Team News

Pakistan have remained consistent throughout with selection. They are likely to remain unchanged.

Sri Lanka Form

Sri Lanka lost their opening Asia Cup match to Afghanistan, but have since been superb. They beat Bangladesh to qualify for the Super 4 stage where they beat India, Afghanistan and Pakistan to reach the final.

Last time out they bowled Pakistan out for 121 runs. Hasaranga was the pick of the bowlers, taking 3-21 in four overs.

Pathum Nissanka lead the way with the bat, scoring 55* off 48 balls. That after Sri Lanka were in trouble at 29-3. The five wicket victory will give them huge confidence coming in the final.

Sri Lanka Injuries & Team News

Sri Lanka are in very strong form and should stick with the same lineup, barring late injuries.
