Sri Lanka themselves won a thriller against Pakistan in their last Super 4 match. It was a virtual semi-final and the Lankans prevailed in the game by two wickets. Charith Asalanka hit the winning runs with Sri Lanka needing 2 off the last ball. The hopes of an India-Pakistan Asia Cup final were dashed in the process.
Both teams have played 166 ODI matches with India winning 97 matches and Sri Laka 57. The final is expected to be a cliffhanger if the rain stays away.
