A tournament that began for Sri Lanka with tumult at home and turbulence in the UAE has ended with them taking home the Asia Cup trophy.

Sri Lanka made it difficult for Pakistan to score throughout their 172-run chase and turned the screws in the last four overs.
Wanindu Hasaranga of Sri Lanka , who had earlier scored a 21-ball 36 to bring the Sri Lankan innings back on track with Bhanuka Rajapaksa, took three wickets in the 17th over alone to all but finish off the Pakistani challenge.
Bhanuka Rajapaksa top-scored for Sri Lanka made a unbeaten 45-ball 71, completely turned the tables on Pakistan. Sri Lanka ended up scoring 170/6 despite being 67/5 after the first 10 overs.
With this win, Sri Lanka have claimed their sixth Asia Cup title.
