The second game of the Super 4 stage of Asia Cup 2023 will witness co-hosts Sri Lanka locking horns against Bangladesh at the R. Premadasa Stadium on September 9.
Sri Lanka reached the Super 4 stage by winning both of their league fixtures against Bangladesh and Afghanistan, respectively. On the other end, Bangladesh are already in a big turmoil as they lost their first Super 4 game against Pakistan. Another bad news for the Bangladesh side is that their star batter, Najmul Hossain Shanto, has withdrawn from the remainder of the series due to a hamstring injury he picked up during the match against Afghanistan.
