PAK vs SL Key battles:

Saim Ayub vs Dushmantha Chameera

Saim Ayub would like to prolong the start that he gets in the upcoming match against Sri Lanka, something which the opener wasn't able to do in the previous game against Zimbabwe.

Ayub will have to face the challenge of Dushmantha Chameera, who will look to pick wickets in the first six overs for Sri Lanka.

Babar Azam vs Nuwan Thushara

Former Pakistani captain Babar Azam would wish to get off the mark in the ongoing tri-series after getting out for a duck against Zimbabwe.

Babar will have to tackle the bowling of Nuwan Thushara, who was a bit expensive in the team's first match against Zimbabwe and would look to make a strong comeback in the next fixture.

Pathum Nissanka vs Shaheen Afridi

Sri Lanka's opening batter Pathum Nissanka will have to come good and score runs for the team after getting out without opening his account against Zimbabwe.

Nissanka will face the challenge of Shaheen Afridi, who will look to get rid of him in the first over of the game, something which he is known for.

Dasun Shanaka vs Mohammad Nawaz

Sri Lanka's skipper, Dasun Shanak, will play a crucial role in tackling the Pakistani spinners while batting in the middle order, as he has a good game against spin.

Shanaka will be up against Mohammad Nawaz, who is in terrific form with both bat and ball, and will look to carry that in this particular match as well and guide his team over the line.

PAK vs SL Key Players:

PAK- Babar Azam, Salman Ali Agha, Saim Ayub, Shaheen Afridi, Mohammad Nawaz

SL- Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis, Dasun Shanaka, Dushmantha Chameera, Nuwan Thushara

PAK vs SL Weather Report:

There are no chances of rain during the game in Rawalpindi with a maximum temperature of 23°C and a minimum of 8°C.

Conclusion

Pakistan would like to maintain the good run of form that the team is in in the T20I format of the game by registering a win in the game against Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, would look to bounce back after a disappointing show with the bat against Zimbabwe.
