Asia Cup 2022 Points Table: Where do India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Sri Lanka stand after IND vs SL Super 4 match?

Team India will not meet arch-rivals Pakistan in the final of the Asia Cup 2022 as Rohit Sharma & Co. are now staring at the exit door of the continental tournament following their defeat to hosts Sri Lanka. Dasun Shanaka-led Sri Lanka completed a stunning comeback in the Asia Cup by defeating India at the Dubai International Stadium on Tuesday. The Islanders recorded back-to-back wins in the Super 4 stage of the continental tournament to boost their chances of entering the Asia Cup final.

While the Shanaka-led Sri Lanka side has revived their campaign in the Super 4 phase, defending champions India are on verge of suffering a premature exit from the showpiece event. Two consecutive defeats at the hands of former champions Sri Lanka and Pakistan have pushed the defending champions towards the exit door amid the Super 4 stage of the Asia Cup.
