Sri Lanka mounted a spirited chase against India, reaching 157/2 in 15 overs while pursuing 203. Pathum Nissanka and Kusal Perera built a crucial 127-run partnership. Nissanka recorded his fifth T20 Asia Cup fifty, surpassing Virat Kohli's record for most 50-plus scores and setting a new record for the biggest partnership in the tournament.

Pathum Nissanka’s maiden T20I century (107 off 58) went in vain as India overcame Sri Lanka in a dramatic Super Over to maintain their unbeaten run in the Asia Cup. Earlier, Abhishek Sharma (61) and Sanju Samson (39) powered India to 202/5, the tournament’s highest total, before Sri Lanka’s late push dragged the contest into a tense finish.
