Asia Cup 2022 Sri Lanka team cannot be taken easy - Wasim Akram warns Babar Azam and Co ahead of PAK vs SL final

By James Kuanal Modified 11 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Wasim Akram warns Pakistan ahead of Asia Cup final. Wasim Akram has warned Babar Azam and Co. ahead of the Asia Cup 2022 final between Sri Lanka and Pakistan on Sunday (September 11). Though he feels Pakistan will begin as favorites, the young Sri Lanka team can prove to be more than a match for them. The former Pakistan cricketer said that the Sri Lanka team have young and exciting talent who could pose a stiff challenge to Pakistan in the fight to be called continental champions. He also questioned the intent of the Pakistan batting unit after they suffered a collapse against Afghanistan and Sri Lanka. Speaking to BBN Sports, he said: “The performance of the Pakistan team has been fabulous in this Asia Cup. However, in the game against Sri Lanka, the intent was missing in their batting. The bowling was decent, though. "Hopefully, they will learn from their mistakes. But still, I think Pakistan are the favourite in the finals. But the exciting and young Sri Lanka team cannot be taken easy.” The Pakistani legend also mentioned that the batting unit was exposed during their last Super 4s game against Sri Lanka. Babar Azam and Co. were bowled out for 121 runs in 19.1 overs. Shibesh Koiry@KoiryShibeshPak- 121 all out

But it will be a good wicket in the final. Hopefully, they come back stronger.”

He struggled a bit because he might be worried about the lack of runs. But the good thing is, he has spent time on the crease and for any great player, that matters as well. I think he’ll do well in the final.” While Azam will chase Pakistan’s third Asia Cup title, Dasun Shanaka and Co. will play for their sixth trophy in the tournament.
