20:49 Local Time, 16:49 GMT, 22:19 IST: A bit of a no-contest to begin the 2022 Asia Cup. Sri Lanka were never in the game, they were blown away by Fazalhaq Farooqi with the new ball, with skipper Mohammad Nabi and Mujeeb ur Rahman also chipping in with a couple of wickets apiece. Sri Lanka’s scorecard read like a telephone directory, with only three players getting into double digits. They weren't at the races with the ball as well, as their marquee bowlers Theekshana and Hasaranga were hammered by the Afghan openers Hazratullah Zazai and Rahmanullah Gurbaz. The latter was tricked by a googly late in the innings, but it wasn't going to impact the game much as Afghanistan coasted to an 8-wicket victory with almost 10 overs to spare.
The onus of making the inroads fell to the spinners and while Hasaranga bowled well in patches, Theekshana was disappointing. This lack of wicket-taking potential is not going to disappear overnight. The batting lineup for Sri Lanka is strong on paper but as we saw in the previous match, it is not very dependable. Pathum Nissanka played a brilliant inning of 83 and Wanindu Hasaranga scored 66 down the order even as the rest of the batters crumbled. Kusal Mendia and Dhananjaya de Silva have both been in good form recently and could be players to watch out for. Sri Lanka's batting is stronger than it appears but it is comparable to what the Afghans have as well. We cannot see the reason for Sri Lanka being priced so low when the teams are so closely matched.

With the new ball, I am trying to bowl good deliveries, but I can also bowl at the death. I am comfortable doing both. Mohammad Nabi: The boys played really well, especially the fast bowlers. When we decided to bowl first, they used the pitch so well. We were just discussing to hit the right lines, and if we get a bit of swing it will be of use for us. We have a lot of confidence after such a game, hopefully we can do well next game as well. Dasun Shanaka: There are two ways to think about the toss, it would have been a bit easier if we were bowling first with two youngsters playing for the first time. There was too much grass, there wasn't too much in it for the spinners but still our world-class spinners should have done better.

Sri Lanka Playing 11 Playing 11 not yet available. Afghanistan Afghanistan has added some brilliant youngsters to its lineup and that seems to have made a world of difference. Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran are genuinely talented batters that give Afghanistan some flair and stability at the top of the order. Rahmat Shah excels in the 50-over format and there is a lot of experience in the middle order as well.
Hashmatullah Shahidi, Mohammad Nabi, Rashid Khan, and Gulbadin Naib are all capable of contributing with the bat. The team can be a bit susceptible to the loss of early wickets but there is no doubt that the batting lineup has more quality than perhaps ever before. Another area where Afghanistan has become very good is its bowling unit. Fazalhaq Farooqi and Yamin Ahmadzai picked up six of the wickets to fall in the first match. They managed to extract something out of a dead and docile pitch even when the Sri Lankan pacers failed to do so. Gulbadin Naib also bowled intelligently to end up with three wickets.
Mohammed Nabi and co benefitted from the washed off games against New Zealand and Ireland, but with the Super 12 stage now reaching business end, they must finally secure a win to progress through. Sri Lanka on the other end, had two points in their hands on Saturday before Glenn Phillips and a resolute bowling attack took them away from the Asian Champions, who also have two points from three matches.

I think in T20 cricket anything can happen, we can bounce back in the next game. Hazratullah Zazai: The way our bowlers had bowled, the target was very small so our chat was to chase this down as soon as possible to be at an advantage for the rest of the tournament. Me and Gurbaz have a good understanding - whenever he was attacking I was trying to give him strike. The players are doing very well, God willing, we can reach the final.
The fact that Afghanistan has quality pacers alongside its three brilliant spinners is why it is so tough to beat. The team with the better bowling attack is more likely to win cricket matches, especially as the duration of the matches becomes longer.
