Rohit Sharma in a pensive mood as India lost to Sri Lanka in Asia Cup<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Indian cricket team suffered its second straight loss in the Super 4 stage of the Asia Cup 2022 on Tuesday night as it failed to defend a target in excess of 170 runs yet again. India had set Sri Lanka a target of 174 runs and the Lankans chased it down with 6 wickets in hand and a ball to spare. The last two overs were an exact replica of how India lost its match against Pakistan on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Bhuvneshwar Kumar<\/a>‘s ineffective bowling in the penultimate over cost India again and young Arshdeep’s best efforts went in vain as he had just 6 runs to defend in both cases.<\/p>\n

India’s toothless bowling in the powerplay is what set up Sri Lanka’s win as the Lankan openers\u00a0Nissanka and Mendis ran away with the match. Yuzvendra Chahal<\/a>‘s three wickets brought India into the match but the pacers lacked the incisive edge that could help the Indians dominate in the death overs.<\/p>\n

The second straight loss means India are now on the brink of ouster. But Rohit Sharma’s team can still qualify for the final.<\/p>\n

Here are all the scenarios keeping the three other teams in mind:<\/p>\n

Sri Lanka:<\/strong> The Lankans are all but through to the finals after their second straight win. India would now need Sri Lanka to beat Pakistan and that too by a big margin.<\/p>\n

Promoted<\/span><\/p>\n

Pakistan:<\/strong>If Pakistan beat Afghanistan on Wednesday then it is curtains for Rohit Sharma’s team. India need Babar Azam<\/a> and his men to lose by a big margin to Sri Lanka and by a relatively close margin against Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

Afghanistan:<\/strong>The mighty Afghans will be India’s last opponents in the Super 4 stage but before that they would need Mohammad Nabi<\/a>‘s team to beat Pakistan. India would then hope to beat the Afghans by a big margin to keep their chances alive.<\/p>\n
