Pakistan, led by Shaheen Shah Afridi, will look to build on the momentum from the first ODI where Salman Ali Agha’s unbeaten 105 off 87 balls and Hussain Talat’s 62 rescued the team from a shaky start. Afridi’s pace attack, supported by Haris Rauf and Naseem Shah, remains Pakistan’s biggest weapon.
Sri Lanka, captained by Charith Asalanka, nearly chased down Pakistan’s 299 in the opener, falling short at 293/9. Wanindu Hasaranga’s 59 runs and three wickets kept them in the hunt until the final overs.
Pitch Report – Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium
The Rawalpindi surface is known for true bounce and smooth batting conditions, making it one of Pakistan’s high-scoring venues. Batters who settle in can build long innings, while fast bowlers may find light swing in the first 6–10 overs.
The quick outfield rewards timing, so expect stroke-makers like Babar Azam and Pathum Nissanka to flourish. However, bowlers who maintain discipline early can still make breakthroughs.
