Asia Cup: Afghanistan Win Toss, Elect To Bat First Against Sri Lanka In Must-win Game
Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium: Afghanistan won the toss and elected to bat first against Sri Lanka in a must-win Group B match of the 2025 Men’s T20 Asia Cup at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium here on Thursday.
Sri Lanka enter their final Group B game at the top of the points table with two wins from as many games, while Afghanistan, currently placed third, are in a do-or-die scenario. A win for Afghanistan would see them leapfrog Bangladesh and secure a spot in the Super Fours.
After winning the toss, Afghanistan skipper Rashid Khan said Darwish Rasooli and Mujeeb Ur Rahman come in for AM Ghazanfar and Gulbadin Naib. “Runs on the board are important on this wicket. It is a must-win game; we have to keep it simple and do the basics right. It is a new surface; we have played a lot in Abu Dhabi, 165+ is a good score,” he said.
