Here's What Will Happen If Remaining Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 Matches Are Washed Out
India, at present, are squaring off against Sri Lanka in their Asia Cup 2023 Super Fours stage match at the R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo.
India in Asia Cup 2023: Indian cricket team achieved their biggest ever win over arch-rivals Pakistan on Monday (September 11) in their Super 4s stage match of the 2023 Asia Cup. Star India batters Virat Kohli and KL Rahul scored sensationals tons, setting the stage for their bowlers to dismantle the Men in Green. After dream spells from Indian pacers saw Pakistan's top order face a bitter collapse, leggie Kuldeep Yadav took a memorable five-wicket haul to seal the victory for his team.
Rohit Sharma & Co. now are squaring off against Asia Cup 2023 co-hosts Sri Lanka in today's Asia Cup 2023 Super Fours stage match at the R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo. The team that wins today will qualify for Asia Cup 2023 Final on Sunday (September 17).
India will remain in action for the third day in a row and this will test players' fitness. Team India's recent win over Babar Azam's Pakistan has given their run-rate a massive boost -- something which might come into play later if today's match gets called off due to rain.
As per reported by website Accuweather, there is 84 percent chance of rain in Colombo, today, and it is highly likely that IND vs SL Asia Cup 2023 Super Fours match will be interrupted throughout the day. Notably, unlike recently-concluded India vs Pakistan Super 4s match, there is no reserve day for the rest of Asia Cup 2023 matches in Super 4 stage.
EXPLAINED: What if remaining Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 matches are washed out?
Hypothetically, if all remaining matches of team India are washed out due to rain, then the Men in Blue will go up against Sri Lanka in Asia Cup 2023 final on Sunday (September 17). If India beats Sri Lanka today, they will confirm their berth in the summit clash.
Sri Lanka, Pakistan and India all have two points each. Bangladesh, who have zero points, have just a game remaining -- against India. Sri Lanka, after today's match against India, still have two games remaining in Super 4s stage: against India and Pakistan.
Pakistan have just one match remaining in Super 4s: against Sri Lanka. As far as the latest Asia Cup 2023 standings, Sri Lanka is far ahead of Pakistan, while Bangladesh’s chances of qualifying for Asia Cup 2023 final are almost non-existent.
