To prevent the Super 4 match between India and Pakistan from getting washed away due to rain, the rules were changed and a reserve day was kept for only one match. There is no reserve day for the matches of Sri Lanka and Bangladesh teams. However, seeing the controversy arising over this, both the boards agreed.

Now this new rule of one reserve day of Asia Cup can only throw the Indian team out of the tournament. Team India was to play a match against Pakistan on 10 September, which will be played on Reserve Day on 11 September due to rain. Now after this the team has to play the host also.

The Indian team will play Asia Cup Super 4 matches on 10th September, 11th September and again on 12th September. First it will play a match against Pakistan for two days and then it will play a match against Sri Lanka. This means that India has to play matches not on one or two but on three consecutive days.

It may happen that India’s match against Pakistan gets washed out due to rain and points have to be distributed and then the match against Sri Lanka goes badly.

The Indian team will play against Bangladesh in the last Super 4 match of Asia Cup on 15th September. If the match between India and Pakistan gets washed out due to rain and points have to be distributed and the match between Sri Lanka gets spoiled, then the last Super 4 match will become important.
