IND Vs SL: India won in just 37 balls by bowling out Sri Lanka for 50 runs, capturing Asia Cup for the eighth time.

India defeated Sri Lanka by 10 wickets, Team India became champion for the eighth time. 

India won the Asia Cup for the eighth time by chasing down a meagre score of 51 against Sri Lanka. After Mohammed Siraj decimated Sri Lanka's batting line-up with figures of 6 for 21 off 7 overs on Sunday in Colombo after Dasun Shanaka won the toss and elected to bat, the result was a foregone conclusion.

Sri Lanka's batsmen were bewildered, as five were bowled without scoring.

India won the final with 263 balls to spare and all ten wickets intact after reaching their goal in only 6.1 overs. In terms of remaining balls, this was India's largest victory margin. The previous best was against Kenya in 2001, when they chased down a 91-ball target with 231 balls remaining.

Ishan Kishan was promoted to begin the innings with Shubman Gill.

Although there was no rain at the toss, the start of play was delayed by 40 minutes due to a sprinkle. Jasprit Bumrah struck early, dismissing Kusal Perera in the opening over, before Mohammed Siraj produced one of the finest exhibitions of fast bowling in the subcontinent's history.

Mohammed Siraj got four wickets in six balls to end Sri Lanka's innings. Siraj removed Pathum Nissanka, Sadeera Samarawickrama, Charith Asalanka, and Dhananjaya de Silva in his second and third overs of the Sri Lankan innings. Siraj then removed Sri Lankan skipper Dasun Shanaka in his next over to become the joint quickest bowler to record a five-wicket haul in one-day internationals, attaining the milestone in only 2.4 overs.

After Stuart Binny (6 for 4), Anil Kumble (6 for 12), and Jasprit Bumrah (6 for 19), Mohammed Siraj's 6 for 21 is the fourth greatest ODI figures by an Indian bowler. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka's 50-run total is the second-lowest in ODI history and the lowest ever recorded. 

by any side in one-day internationals against India.

Despite entering the World Cup after winning the Cricket World Cup Qualifiers in Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka has been highly good in the Asia Cup. In the Super 4, Sri Lanka defeated India in a tough encounter before stunning Pakistan in a rain-soaked match to reach the final. In front of raucous home supporters, Sri Lanka's hitters lacked conviction and paid the price for bad shot selection against two of the world's greatest pacers.

While Mohammed Siraj wrecked the Sri Lankan top order, Hardik Pandya chipped in with three wickets, including two off two balls.
