Busy schedules for cricketers around the world. We are talking about the Asia Cup, which features the top 4 teams from the Asian continent.

Dambulla, Sri Lanka has been decided as the venue for the cup where Pakistan Meets Sri Lanka in the first Match of Asia Cup 2010. Rainy Season is in full flow which means there would be a sharp movement in the air and off the pitch as well as the dew spices up the pitch.

Lets look at both the teams, Pakistan, in amidst of all the things in the world like ball biting incident in Australia involving Afridi or the rumors of match fixing, to the alleged non-co-operation of senior members with former captain Younis Khan, looking to stand tall in front of Sri Lanka and what would help is the return of Rawalpindi Express Shoaib Akhtar. Talented Afridi Would lead the side after Yousuf and Younis are out of the captaincy race.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, flying high after the win in the tri-series in Zimbabwe. Not only they are defending champions, they are entitled as the favorites to win this year Asia Cup as well. Sri Lanka would be looking to win this on the home turf in the lights of Sangakkara who is leading the side with strong players like Mahela, Tharanga, Kandamby, Samaraweera and Mathews.

Malinga makes the bowling stronger with the help of Mathews and Welegedera.

But still, I think Pakistan would be able to clinch this one from the hands of Sri Lanka.
