SL vs PAK LIVE: Yet another fielding BLUNDER from Pakistan, Asif Ali & Shadab Khan COLLIDE trying to take Bhanuka Rajapaksa’s catch, Watch Video
In a typical Pakistan fashion, Shadab Khan and Asif Ali made a meal of a simple catch handing Bhanuka Rajapaksa a crucial life during the Asia Cup final. The left-hander who scored a half-century looked to up the ante in the end overs, miscuing a scoop down towards the boundary.
Shadab and Asif both came running in for the catch, colliding into each other, while the ball slipped their grasp and went for a maximum. To add further insult to the injury, Shadab Khan stayed down for a few minutes after getting hurt in the collision. Watch the video here:

The drop proved costly as Bhanuka Rajapska continued his onslaught on the Pakistan bowlers. The left-hander picked up 14 runs from the 20th over of the innings as Sri Lanka managed a fighting 170/6 batting first. Rajapaksa remained unbeaten on 71 off just 45 deliveries, helping Sri Lanka to a good total after they were reduced to 58/5 after 9 overs.
