For the first time this year, Asia cup is being held in the T20 format. It was no surprise actually, considering T20 is the favorite among all the fans. Five teams are playing in this tournament, held in Bangladesh. India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh has automatically qualified and UAE had to go through the qualifiers to reach the final round. The format is quite simple. All the teams will play each other and then the top two teams will play in the final. With the T20 Wold Cup fast approaching, this is the perfect opportunity for all the teams to get in shape for the Wold Cup. India is of course the favorites because of their recent form. But Sri Lanka and Pakistan also have quality sides and are more than capable of throwing in a surprise. Bangladesh also showed in the last World Cup, that they should also be considered as serious contenders.
The Pakistan Vs UAE match will be played today. Both the teams are recovering from a difficult loss and will be eager to get back in form. Pakistan players joined the tournament late because of their participation in the Pakistan Super League (PSL). They misread the pitch in their first match against India and suffered an embarrassing loss against their arch rivals. They only managed a total of 83. However, in spite of that, they bowled pretty well and almost got India in trouble. Like Pakistan, UAE also relies heavily on their bowlers. They look like a completely different side when they bowl, but their batting has constantly let them down. The form of one of their most famous players, Shahid Afridi should be a worry for Pakistan.
However, Mohammad Amir’s performance against India should give them some confidence. Amjad Javed, the captain of UAE, also said that his batsmen should take some inspiration from their bowlers. Pakistan also need to do the same. If they managed to score 40 more runs against India, then they could have won the watch. UAE is not a high profile opponent as India, hence the pressure should be less for Pakistan. They should be able to get the job done this time.

as Australia and Sri Lanka. Moreover, the win against Bangladesh and other
teams has put India on top of the table in terms of the points accumulated by
the team.

is yet to be tested in the tournament since the Saturday fixture against India
will be their first match of the tournament. What makes the match pitting India
vs Pakistan even more interesting is the fact that these teams have not faced
each other in well over a year. However, if history is anything to go by, India
might indeed upset Pakistan since the last time the two teams met, India won
the match by 76 runs. Be that as it may, Pakistan can pin their hopes in the

One of the most looked forward matches of the Asia Cup Live tournament is the Sri Lanka vs UAE. An analysis of both teams reveals that it would indeed be imprudent to write off either of the teams since both have shown some impressive performances in the recent past. Sri-Lanka is coming into this game against the backdrop of a 2-1 defeat in the first T20 tournament. Be that as it may, the islanders had a strong start against India in the initial stages of their fixture but the more experienced Indian side defeated Sri-Lanka in the final games thereby emerging victorious. Most probably, the strategy of the Sri-Lankan side would be to put its best foot forward in the UAE fixture and maintain its focus to the end. This will most probably entail fielding most of the key players with the likes of Lasith Mlainga, Nuwan Kulasekara and Angelo Mathews likely to feature in the lineup.
An analysis of the opposing side, The United Arab Emirates reveals that the UAE has actually had some impressive performances leading up to this clash. The UAE maintained an almost clean sheet in its qualifying journey and this might lead to a lot of people designating the team as favorites. This should not however imply that the UAE are indeed the clear favorites since some of the teams they beat might not have been the most formidable opponents. To add on to that, Sri-Lanka has some sort of a rich history when it comes to the team’s big-match temperament since the team has over the years managed to defeat some of the biggest names in the global cricket circuit.
There will be several internal TV stations and internet based live streaming TV services that will air the match pitting Sri-Lanka and the United Arab Emirates.
