India A vs Pakistan A Weather Report Live Today And Pitch Report Of Colombo Stadium– Final, ACC Emerging Asia Cup 2023. Colombo is all set to host the India A vs Pakistan A Emerging Asia Cup final on Sunday, July 23. India defeated Pakistan in the last league game before the knockout stages. This match starts at 2 pm IST.

India are still unbeaten in the tournament and could possibly remain unbeaten if they beat Pakistan in the final. India won a lo-scoring semi-final against Bangladesh A with their bowlers backing up their batters. India managed to defend their score of 211 as they bowled out Bangladesh for 160.

Their openers added 70 for the first wicket together in 13 overs. However, once the opening stand was broken it opened the floodgates for India. Nishant Sindhu took five for 20 and Manav Suthar took three for 32 to crumble Bangladesh. Abhishek Sharma and Yuvrajsinh Dodiya took one each.

Pakistan dominated their semi-final game against Sri Lanka. They scored 322 with the bat with Omair Yousuf scoring 88 and skipper Mohammad Haris scoring 52. Mubasir Khan scored 42 and Mohammad Wasim Jr scored 24.

Sri Lanka were bowled out for 262 in the chase with Avishka Fernando and Sahan Arachchige both scoring 97. However, their knocks went in vain as Sri Lanka A lost the match by 60 runs.

India A having beaten Pakistan A in their previous game sets up the final brilliantly. The Pakistan A have some players who have already played international cricket and also in the PSL. But still, they lost their last game against India with none of them having played for the senior side so far.

For India, the likes of skipper Yash Dhull, Sai Sudharsan, and Abhishek Sharma make a formidable trio. Dhruv Jurel and Prabhsimran Singh are two good keeper-batters that India have at their disposal. The bowling attack is led by Delhi and KKR pacer Harshit Rana who has already picked up six wickets. Akash Singh and Rajvardhan Hangargeka have all proved their worth at the IPL level.

The IND vs PAK A final starts at 2 pm local time in Colombo. It is an absolute paradise for the batters with the ball coming onto the bat. A good batter will surely score runs on this track if he gives himself some time as the likes of Sudharsan and Jose proved against Pakistan A. Pakistan A scored 322 against Sri Lanka in semi-final 1 at this very ground.

There is a rain threat hovering on the big final on Sunday. The temperature in the afternoon will be around 31 degrees with chances of thunderstorms. There will be 75 percent humidity and 91 percent cloud cover. There is a 40 percent chance of rain playing spoilsport in the final.
