Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf was at his best for his team in the Asia Cup 2022 final against Sri Lanka as cleaned up two opposition batters inside the powerplay on Sunday (September 11). The right-arm pacer has been in sensational form in the ongoing Asia Cup for Pakistan and captain Babar Azam was right on the money when he decided to bring him in inside the 6 overs.

First he removed the in-form batter Pathum Nissanka after Naseem Shah cleaned up his partner Kusal Mendis in the first over of the final. Later on, he dismissed Sri Lanka middle-order batter Gunathilaka with a beautiful inswinging delivery fueled with pace. Social media couldn't keep after the right-arm pacer delivered in the final of the Asia Cup 2022.

Coming to the match, an impressive fighting fifty by Bhanuka Rajapaksa (71 not out off 45 and an attacking knock by Wanindu Hasaranga (36 off 21) propelled Sri Lanka to 170/6 against Pakistan in the final of the Asia Cup 2022 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, on Sunday (September 11). Apart from Rajapaksa and Hasaranga, Dhananjaya de Silva (28 off 21) and Chamika Karunaratne (14 not out off 14) also played vital knocks for Sri Lanka, during their stay at the crease.

Put into bat first, Sri Lanka were off to a terrible start, losing three wickets inside the powerplay against the quality pace bowling. In the very first over, pacer Naseem Shah clean bowled Mendis, who was late to bring his bat down on a quality length ball. Pathum Nissanka and Dhananjaya de Silva then hit a few boundaries to show some fight back. (With IANS inputs)
