Sri Lanka Crash Out Of The 2018 Asia Cup

Dubai: Afghanistan and Bangladesh are through to the next stage. Afghanistan were expected to be a threat, few may have considered this an upset at the start of the clash

Shocking performance by the whole team,” says captain Angelo Mathews. “Even in the first game, we got all out for 150-odd.

Congratulations to Afghanistan, they outplayed us. We got a good start but once again lost our way in the middle overs. The bowlers did well, the fielding had also improved from the last match. It’s just the batting unit that let us down. We played better cricket in the latter part of the South Africa series.

Just disappointing to see the way the boys went about it. We just couldn’t handle pressure. Not passing 150 on both occasions is very shocking and disappointing.”
