Since the beginning of the Emerging Asia Cup, Afghanistan have looked very positive and they have performed brilliantly to beat the big teams and qualify for the finals. Today in the final of the Emerging Asia Cup, Sri Lanka A team faced Afghanistan A team where at the beginning of the match, Afghanistan A team was able to put a lot of pressure on this team by bowling brilliantly against A team. Sri Lanka managed to score only 34 runs in seven overs where they lost four wickets. As they have not been able to bat at a good run rate and they have lost quite a few wickets in the beginning so they may not be able to take their team to a very good position from this situation.
Sri Lanka A seems to be in real trouble in this match. They have lost 5 wickets already and the score is only 65. Check the top order and you will see none was able to bat today, Yashodha Lanka , Lahiru Udara and even captain Nuwanidu Fernando was not able to make over 5 runs. Yes they are recovering now a bit when Sahan Arachchige and Nimesh Vimukthi are making some partnership, but isn't too late ? I think Sri Lanka A will not be able to make 140 runs and it may be an easy chase for Afghanistan A.
