Asia Cup 2022: Sri Lanka take on spirited Afghanistan in the tournament opener
After the qualifiers have ended, we are into the end game now of the Asia Cup. The continental tournament, usually a biennial affair, is happening after a gap of four years. Covid-19 surely was a blip that humankind will want to forget, but will always be etched in history. But the people have fought and come back stronger against the infection over a couple of years. And sports has been at the very centre of the fight back. It did not curb Covid-19, it never could, but it made sure that people can move on from what happened.
And so the Asia Cup begins, with six neighbouring teams to test the best amongst themselves. India, on paper, is undoubtedly the best team, but the T20 format can burn a piece of paper in a whisker of a second.
