New Delhi. On Monday, Double-Hader of Asia Cup 2025 cleaned the super four picture to a great extent. Group A Ku UAE defeated Oman by 42 runs at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi in the afternoon game. At the same time, Sri Lanka of Group B defeated Hong Kong at Dubai International Cricket Stadium. After the UAE victory, India became the first team to qualify for Super Four, while Oman became the first team to be out of the race. At the same time, after losing to Sri Lanka, Hong Kong’s journey also ended in the Asia Cup.

India’s strong victory over Pakistan on Sunday gave him four points, causing him to reach the next round. The UAE victory has kept his Super 4’s claim alive. With this victory, Pakistan is under threat of being out. Along with Pakistan, UAE also has two points. Now there will be a knockout match between these two teams to go from Group A to Super 4. The UAE and Pakistan will clash in an important match on Wednesday, September 7. The one who won will make it to the next round.

Sri Lanka finished Hong Kong’s tournament on a disappointing note. The Chinese team became the second team to be out of the tournament after Oman. If he had won the game, he would have a minor chance to qualify. Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan are still in the Super 4 race.

There are only two matches left in the group: Afghanistan vs Bangladesh will play on 16 September and Afghanistan vs Sri Lanka on 18 September. If Afghanistan defeats Bangladesh, they will ensure qualification not only for themselves but also for Sri Lanka. This would mean that tigers cannot go beyond two digits, and Afghanistan and Sri Lanka will have four digits each.

If Bangladesh defeats Afghanistan, both Bangladesh and Sri Lanka will have four points and Afghanistan will have one match and will have two points. In this situation, if the Sri Lankan team defeats Afghanistan, they will ensure qualification for themselves and Bangladesh. Conversely, if Sri Lanka loses, the three teams will end on four points and the top two will be fixed on the net run-rate.
