Pakistan and Sri Lanka co-hosting the Asia Cup in 2023. It began on August 30, when host Pakistan beat Nepal by a huge margin. In the final, India completely dominated the game and comfortably lifted their seventh title on September 17.
The tournament is organized in a 50-over format. It provides a little advantage to batters to get some time on the pitch and score big runs. But, it does not mean that there are empty options for bowlers.
Skilful bowlers like Wasim Akram, Muttiah Muralitharan and others show their presence in any conditions. Same here in the Asia Cup 2023 where some bowlers totally control the batsman.
