In Asia Cup Cricket, chasing a target of 214 runs set by India, Sri Lanka were 25 for 2 in 6.4 overs in the Super Four match at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo when reports last came in. Earlier, India won the toss and elected to bat. Rohit Sharma with a 53-run knock was the highest scorer for the Indian side.
 
Meanwhile, Sri Lanka face a significant challenge. A victory against India would all but secure their place in the final. However, a loss would catapult India into the final, compelling Sri Lanka to confront a virtual knockout clash against Pakistan.
