Pakistan, the defending Asia Cup champions, are looking to bounce back from their 12-run loss on Tuesday to Sri Lanka. Umar Akmal and skipper Misbah-ul-Haq led Pakistan with 74 and 73 runs, respectively, but the rest of the Pakistani lineup struggled against Sri Lanka's bowlers, who took a total of 10 wickets in the opener.
Pakistan wasn't any better on the bowling front, either. They had difficulty restricting the Sri Lankan batsmen - Lahiru Thirimanne scored 102 runs, Kumar Sangakkara scored 67 and skipper Angelo Mathews scored 55 (not out) - and managed to take only five wickets in the match.
Afghanistan is the underdog on Thursday but, having recently qualified for the World T20 and World Cup, possess enough talent to deliver an upset to the reigning champions.
The match is the third of the 2014 Asia Cup to be played at Khan Shaheb Osman Ali Stadium in Fatullah, Bangladesh. Weather.com forecasts a sunny day with no chance of precipitation; temperatures could reach a high of 87 degrees Fahrenheit with NW winds at 10 mph.
