Sri Lanka vs. Afghanistan Asia Cup 2023 Captain, Vice-Captain Picks
Pathirana
In the previous game, Pathirana was the leading wicket-taker. With this kind of action, it is really hard to read him.
He is a complete bowler who can ball in any given condition. In the power-play, and middle overs, and he is even lethal in the death overs.
So you can expect him to pick at least a couple of wickets. He is relatively a safer option as Vice-captain.
In fact, in this Asia Cup, I will pick more all-rounders and bowlers as captains and vice-captains.
Rashid Khan
Rashid is yet to deliver his best in this Asia Cup. The match against Sri Lanka might be the perfect stage for him.
On his day, he can single-handedly win the game for his team.
Add his batting ability and extraordinary fielding. There are sure lots of fantasy points for the coming if it is his day.
