Asia Cup 2025 Super Four, Match 1: Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Preview, Head-to-Head and Key Stats

The Asia Cup 2025 Super Four stage kicks off with Sri Lanka taking on Bangladesh at the Dubai International Stadium on Saturday. Both teams enter this crucial round with contrasting group-stage journeys. Sri Lanka dominated Group B, registering three wins out of three, while Bangladesh made it through after edging past Hong Kong and Afghanistan.

In their earlier face-off during the group stage, Bangladesh’s batting faltered, posting just 139 runs on the board. Litton Das, Shamim Hossain, and Jaker Ali were the only players to cross double figures. Sri Lanka’s chase was clinical, finishing the game in only 14.4 overs. Pathum Nissanka and Kamil Mishara struck quickfire fifties to guide their side to victory.

Now, with high-stakes games lined up against India and Pakistan in the Super Four, both sides will be keen to begin this stage with momentum. Sri Lanka face Pakistan on September 23 and India on September 26, while Bangladesh’s clashes are scheduled against India on September 24 and Pakistan on September 25.
