Analysis: 

Afghanistan had a near-perfect start to their Asia Cup campaign as they registered a towering eight-wicket win over Sri Lanka. The Afghan bowlers bundled out the Lanka for just 105 in 19.4 overs with incredible spells by Fazalhaq Farooqi and Mujeeb-ur-Rehman. Their batters backed the bowling performance as they chased the score in 10 overs. 

Talking about Bangladesh, Shakib al Hasan’s side has been extremely inconsistent throughout 2022 as their big players have failed to deliver. Mahamadullah, Mushfiqur Rahim, and Shakib have not been impactful which has led to repetitive batting collapses. These shortcomings have negatively impacted their bowlers who are required to take the bulk of the responsibility.
