Sri Lanka captain Charith Asalanka chose to field after winning the coin flip against India during their final Super 4 encounter at Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Friday. The hosts made one personnel adjustment as Janith Liyange entered the squad replacing Chamika Karunaratne. India responded with two roster modifications, bringing Harshit Rana and Arshdeep Singh while resting Jasprit Bumrah and Shivam Dube. Both teams prepared for this meaningless fixture since India had already secured their finals berth through previous victories.

The tournament leaders maintained their perfect record while pursuing their ninth Asia Cup championship. Sri Lanka faced elimination after consecutive defeats during the Super 4 stage. Sunday's championship match will feature India against Pakistan at the same venue. Captain Suryakumar Yadav expressed confidence about continuing their successful tournament approach despite the match lacking competitive significance.
