The former Asia Cup champions, Sri Lanka, would like to win the upcoming game to book a spot in the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup 2025.
Sri Lanka would wish to rectify the mistakes they made in the previous match against Hong Kong, which they should have won a lot earlier than they did.
Amidst all the chaos, one of the few positives for Lanka in that match was the form of opener Pathum Nissanka, who continued to score runs and would want to replicate the same performance against Afghanistan.
Middle-order batsmen and all-rounders: Kamil Mishara, Kusal Perera, Kamindu Mendis, Charith Asalanka (c), Dasun Shanaka, Wanindu Hasaranga
As mentioned above, the team management would want a better effort from the middle order batters who got out after getting their eye in, which left Sri Lanka in a tricky situation during the dying stages of the game.
Lanka would also want their lower middle order to get a hit in the middle, as their contribution can prove to be crucial come the next round.
Bowlers: Maheesh Theekshana, Dushmantha Chameera, Nuwan Thushara
Sri Lankan bowlers have done a decent job in what have been helpful conditions for bowling in the UAE.
Along with the spinners, the Lankan fast bowlers have also played their part with the new ball and in the final five overs.
