India will take on a confident Sri Lanka in their second Super 4 clash at Asia Cup 2022. The match will be played at Dubai International Stadium on September 6 (Tuesday). The Men in Blue will head into this contest on the back of a five-wicket loss against arch-rivals Pakistan. Rohit Sharma-led team India would look to pick up the pace after that defeat and aim for a convincing win against the official hosts of the tournament. On the other hand, Sri Lanka have already won their first match at this round-robin stage against Afghanistan and a win against the defending champions in Dubai would ensure a ticket to final for them. There will be a lot at stake for India in this match as a loss can show them the exit door of the T20I competition. Most importantly, this is the first time this two teams will meet each other in Asia Cup 2022. IND vs SL Dream11 Team Prediction: Tips To Pick Best Fantasy Playing XI for India vs Sri Lanka Asia Cup 2022 Super 4 Cricket Match in Dubai

For India, some of the biggest positives from their defeat against Pakistan came in the batting department. The opening partnership of KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma, which was under heavy criticism for their dismal show in the group stage, was on fire against the Green Shirts, scoring 50+ runs. Virat Kohli's solid half-century was the biggest takeaway for the Men in Blue. What would worry India is their bowling department, especially Yuzvendra Chahal and Hardik Pandya, both of whom conceded 87 runs in total. After Avesh Khan was ruled out due to fever, Ravi Bishnoi displayed a controlled bowling display of 26/1 in his 4 overs.

Sri Lanka on the other hand would be brimming with confidence after beating Afghanistan by four wickets in their last match. Dasun Shanaka' side would depend on their reignited batters who were in great rhythm against the Afghans while chasing down a big score of 176 runs. With Kusal Mendis and Pathum Nissanka going big so fat in the tournament, the Lankans would hope to edge Rohit Sharma's side.
