India swatted aside Sri Lanka and Pakistan overcame Bangladesh to tee up a mouthwatering Asian Games final.

There will be a gold medal at stake when the rivals face each other in an intriguing T20I clash on Sunday.

India made light work of Sri Lanka, cruising to a 124-run victory in their semi-final.

Ishan Kishan's unbeaten 80 propelled India towards 169-7 from their 20 overs, with Vaibhav Sooryavanshi (38) also impressing.

Jasprit Bumrah (2-7), Axar Patel (2-8) and Abhishek Sharma (2-2) then dismantled Sri Lanka, who were bowled out for just 45. Nuwanidu Fernando (15) was the only batter to get into double figures.

Pakistan, meanwhile, claimed a six-wicket win with nine balls remaining against Bangladesh.

Hasan Nawaz (27 not out) and Abdul Samad (30 not out) guided Pakistan to victory, after an early Bangladesh onslaught had left them on 53-4.

India secure the win and advance to the final.

Sri Lanka's sorry day out

Sri Lanka might have considered themselves unfortunate, given they almost dismissed India's star man Kishan on several occasions, with his aerial miscues falling onto safe ground.

Nuwanidu Fernando dropped Kishan on 56, and ultimately he made Sri Lanka pay.

That being said, even had Fernando held onto that catch, then India were just sensational with the ball.

Bumrah, Patel and Abhishek were near enough unplayable, and India rounded out the innings with a team hat-trick, while Sri Lanka had three batters run out in what was a dismal day at the office.

Sri Lanka's total of 45 is the second-lowest score by a men's team at the Asian Games, and is the joint-lowest total for a full-member nation in T20Is, along with West Indies against England in 2019.
