Sri Lanka qualified for the final after defeating Pakistan

(Web Desk) - Defending champion Sri Lanka succeeded to make it to the Asia Cup final but Zaman Khan made it difficult for them until the last ball. 

Sri Lanka qualified for the final after defeating Pakistan in the crucial match of the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup on Thursday. 

Both teams were facing the crucial situation as Sri Lanka needed eight runs off the last six balls when Zaman Khan came in to bowl. Sri Lanka required two runs on the last ball but it was poor fielding which helped Sri Lankan batter Charith Asalanka score easily taking his team to the final. 

After the defeat, Pakistani cricketers could not hide their sadness in the stadium and Zaman Khan also became emotional while sitting on the pitch. Sensing his condition, Shaheen Afridi and other cricketers hugged and comforted Khan.

Due to poor fielding and batting, Pakistan team is being criticised by the cricket fans but they are sharing the picture of Zaman Khan on social media as a token of love and appreciation of his splendid performance in the match.
