Following Afghanistan's narrow two-run loss to Sri Lanka in their Asia Cup match on Tuesday, head coach Jonathan Trott revealed that his team was unaware of the calculations that could have allowed them to qualify for the 'Super 4' stage of the Asia Cup, even if they hadn't successfully chased the 292-run target within the stipulated 37.1 overs.
In a thrilling match held at the Gaddafi Stadium, Sri Lanka secured a 'Super 4' spot thanks to Kasun Rajitha's four-wicket haul and Dhananjaya de Silva's crucial two wickets in the 38th over.
