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.

India made two changes for their final Super Fours fixture against Sri Lanka, resting pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah and all-rounder Shivam Dube, with Arshdeep Singh and Harshit Rana drafted in.
