Asia Cup 2022: Pakistan beat Afghanistan by 1 wicket, India knocked out of final
Pakistan's Iftikhar Ahmed plays a shot during the Asia Cup Twenty20 international cricket Super Four match between Afghanistan and Pakistan at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium in Sharjah.
Team India is out of Asia Cup final contention after Pakistan beat Afghanistan by one wicket in an exciting Super 4 match on Wednesday.
The result meant that India and Afghanistan are out of reckoning for the final to be played on Sunday as they are winless from two matches. With four points each, Pakistan and Sri Lanka qualified for the title clash.
India's fate had slipped out of their hands after the defeat against Sri Lanka and any faint hopes remaining were snuffed out with Pakistan snatching victory against Afghanistan in the final over in a Super 4 match that could have gone either way.
