India reached 134/3 in 13.1 overs against Sri Lanka in their Asia Cup 2025 Super Fours clash at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. After Abhishek Sharma’s explosive knock earlier, the middle-order pair of Tilak Varma (27 off 18) and Sanju Samson (23 off 15) have built a strong 42-run stand, keeping the momentum going with aggressive strokeplay.
Sri Lanka, however, suffered a major setback as Wanindu Hasaranga walked off the field mid-spell with one over left. His absence is a blow for the Lankans, as he remains crucial not only with the ball but also in their batting order.
Maheesh Theekshana has returned to the attack, having already picked up a wicket while conceding 23 runs in his first 2 overs. With India scoring at a healthy run rate of over 10, the next few overs will be pivotal for Sri Lanka to contain the damage.
