Captaincy Picks:
Sahibzada Farhan – Pakistan’s captain made a powerful statement in the series opener, smashing 89 off 53 balls, including 10 fours and four sixes. His commanding innings anchored the chase and helped Pakistan reach the target with seven balls remaining. |

Shadab Khan – Shadab provides Pakistan with an experienced all-round option through his right-handed batting and leg-spin bowling. His ability to attack in the middle order and take wickets with variations makes him an important part of the team’s T20I combination. |
Dasun Shanaka – Shanaka contributed 24 runs for Sri Lanka, helping maintain momentum during the middle overs before his dismissal. The right-handed batting all-rounder also offers right-arm medium-pace bowling, giving Sri Lanka another option in both departments. |

PAK vs SL Match Preview:
Pakistan will take on Sri Lanka in the second T20I of their three-match series on 11 October 2026 at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, Rawalpindi, with the action scheduled to begin at 8:30 PM IST. After winning the opening match by four wickets, Pakistan hold a 1–0 lead and will aim to extend their advantage on home soil. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka must respond strongly to keep the series alive and address the mistakes that cost them the first game.
Sri Lanka posted 182/8 in their 20 overs during the opening T20I, with Lahiru Udara leading the innings through an impressive 91 off 55 balls, including 11 fours and one six. Kamindu Mendis added 23 off 18 deliveries, while Dasun Shanaka chipped in with 18 off 15. However, Pakistan’s bowlers kept the total within reach, as Naseem Shah claimed 3/36 and debutant Mohammad Imran Randhawa returned an encouraging 2/21.
In reply, Pakistan reached 187/6 in 18.5 overs, thanks largely to captain Sahibzada Farhan’s explosive 89 off 53 balls, featuring 10 fours and four sixes. Maaz Sadaqat also made an impact with a quickfire 50 off 29 balls, and their 92-run second-wicket partnership put Pakistan firmly in control. Fakhar Zaman’s 21 off 13 deliveries provided further support, while Eshan Malinga and Maheesh Theekshana picked up two wickets each. Nevertheless, Pakistan completed the chase with seven balls to spare.
Pakistan will head into the second match with confidence, particularly after Farhan’s match-winning contribution and the promising performances from Maaz Sadaqat and Imran Randhawa. On the other hand, Sri Lanka will look to build around Udara’s outstanding innings and seek more consistent contributions from Kusal Mendis, Kamil Mishara and the middle order. Furthermore, their bowlers need to execute their plans more effectively in the powerplay and middle overs to restrict Pakistan’s scoring opportunities.
Naseem Shah and Shadab Khan could again prove influential for the hosts, whereas Sri Lanka will rely on Theekshana, Dushmantha Chameera and Eshan Malinga to deliver a more disciplined effort. Although Pakistan start as the stronger side after their opening victory, Sri Lanka still have the ability to make the second T20I a closely fought contest.
