Google win predictor puts India’s chances at 80 percent for this Super Four tie
India and Sri Lanka meet in their final Super Four clash at the Asia Cup 2025, with India using this match as a valuable opportunity to iron out combinations before Sunday’s highly anticipated final against Pakistan.
Sri Lanka, already eliminated after defeats to Bangladesh and Pakistan, will look to restore pride at the Dubai International Stadium. For India, all eyes are on their middle-order selection with the management keen to assess the finishing skills of Jitesh Sharma while weighing concerns about Sanju Samson’s role and recent fielding lapses.
The Men in Blue have dominated this stage of the tournament, remaining unbeaten with Suryakumar Yadav’s leadership supported by a consistent batting lineup and sharp bowling. Sri Lanka will be keen to end their campaign on a positive note led by Charith Asalanka, knowing India might rest key players like Jasprit Bumrah before the final. India’s fielding will also be in focus after ten dropped catches in five matches.
The game gets underway at 8 pm IST in Dubai and will be live streamed on Sony Liv.
