Who will join India in Asia Cup final if PAK vs SL match is washed out?

The two cricketing powerhouses of Asia -- India and Pakistan -- have never played against each other in the final of Asia Cup&#39;s 39-year history. The biggest reason behind this has been the rise of Sri Lanka, which has spoiled the rivalry battle at the continental extravaganza. And the Lankans will have the opportunity to deny ardent cricket fans the chance to witness the India vs Pakistan final in Asia Cup 2023 as well.<br />

<strong>PoK-born pacer Zaman set to make ODI debut for Pakistan in Asia Cup</strong><br />
<br />
<div>
	Pakistan Occupied Kashmir-born cricketer Zaman Khan is all set to make his ODI debut against Sri Lanka in the must-win Asia Cup match in Colombo on Thursday.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Zaman, a young fast bowler who has had a typical rag to riches story, belongs to a poor family from Mirpur in PoK. He played first for Rawlakot Hawks in the Kashmir League and has now appeared in T20 leagues in Canada and Sri Lanka.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Zaman has not played any first class game but has represented Pakistan in six T20 Internationals against Afghanistan and New Zealand. He is set to replace injured Naseem Shah, who has been ruled out of the remainder of the tournament due to a shoulder injury.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	The playing eleven announced by the Pakistan team management on Wednesday also confirmed that fast bowler Haris Rauf would sit out of the match with an injury.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	The PCB had earlier announced the inclusion of Zaman in the Pakistan squad in place of Naseem.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Pakistan medical team is also closely monitoring the progress of Rauf, who is feeling discomfort in his right flank after pulling out of the match against India.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	The biggest surprise has been the rise of Zaman in the Pakistan cricket ranks as the 22-year-old only appeared on the scene when he played in the Kashmir League in 2021 and was then picked up by Lahore Qalandars in the Pakistan Super League.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Yet to play any first class game, Zaman took just two wickets in six games for Manchester Invincibles in the recent Hundred tournament in England but is rated highly by former pacers, including Pakistan&#39;s team director, Mickey Arthur.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Zaman played for English county side Derbyshire where Arthur is the head coach.<br />

Meanwhile, the weather at R Premadasa Stadium is apt for a game of cricket at the moment. Few players of Indian team has been practicing, which is an optional session, at the stadium. It seems Colombo weather has improved significantly as predicted by Sri Lanka&#39;s weather department.<br />

<strong>Babar should not just follow a straight line and decide against making changes in the line-up: Ramiz Raja</strong><br />
<br />
Pakistan Former captain and PCB chief Ramiz Raja has urged Pakistan captain Babar Azam and team management to pick players on merit and reassess Fakhar Zaman&#39;s form ahead of the team&#39;s must-win Asia Cup game against Sri Lanka.
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Pakistan will take on Sri Lanka on Thursday in a Super 4 match which will act as a virtual semifinal, since the winner will face India in the final on Sunday, September 17.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Following Pakistan&#39;s heaviest loss to India in ODIs by 228 runs in the Asia Cup, Raja has come down hard on Babar&#39;s team over their reluctance to drop the out-of-form Zaman.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Raja said, Babar should not just follow a straight line and decide against making changes in the line-up. The team management and Babar need to realise their love affair with Fakhar is not beneficial for the team as he is not in form at all.</div>
