Asia Cup Final Preview!!!
After defeating Pakistan by five wickets in the final match of the Super 4 round, Sri Lanka will face the Pakistan team for the real battle this time. The Dasun Shanaka-led Sri Lanka team will face Babar Azam-led Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2022 final on Sunday, September 11, 2022, at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai.

Two-time winners Pakistan also lost their series opener against India, but then made three wins. Both teams are looking to clinch the Asian crown, so it will likely be an exciting and heated final.

Nuwan Thushara Set to Miss IPL 2026 After SLC NOC Refusal
Nuwan Thushara is set to miss the upcoming IPL 2026 season in a significant setback for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), after Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) declined to issue him a No Objection Certificate (NOC).
The decision comes following SLC’s latest policy requiring all centrally contracted players to meet strict fitness standards before being cleared for overseas franchise leagues. Thushara reportedly failed to reach the required fitness benchmarks, leading to uncertainty over his participation and eventual exclusion.
RCB had secured the services of the Sri Lankan pacer for approximately INR 1.6 crore, viewing him as a valuable addition to their pace attack. However, his absence could now force the franchise to rethink their squad composition ahead of the tournament.
Interestingly, reports indicate that Thushara is not carrying any injury and remains available to bowl. Despite this, concerns over his overall fitness levels falling short of SLC’s criteria have ultimately ruled him out of the competition.
During his stint with RCB, Thushara featured in just one match, largely serving as a backup option. He made a notable impact in that appearance, returning figures of 1 for 26 with an impressive economy rate of 6.50, showcasing his potential when called upon.
