PAK vs SL Betting Tips
Sahibzada Farhan to score over 20.5 runs
Sahibzada Farhan is the leading run-scorer of the tournament. He has scored back-to-back half-centuries heading into this match. He has scored at least 20 runs in each of his two innings against Sri Lanka, and we are backing him to play a good knock here.
Wanindu Hasaranga to be the best bowler for Sri Lanka
Wanindu Hasaranga has picked up 5 wickets in 3 games and was Sri Lanka’s best bowler in two of those games. He has an excellent record against Pakistan, having picked up at least two wickets in 6 of his 7 matches against them. As the pitch is likely to help the slower bowlers, we are backing Hasaranga to be the top bowler for Sri Lanka in this match.

PAK vs SL Team Previews
Pakistan
With three wins in as many matches, Pakistan has been the most dominant side in this Tri-series and has already qualified for the finals. However, they will look to continue with the same momentum and win this match as well.
Sahibzada Farhan continues to impress at the top of the order as he struck his second half-century of the tournament on Sunday. He will open the batting with Saim Ayub at the other end. The latter hasn’t been in the best of forms, but it is just a matter of time before he gets going.
Babar Azam was at his fluent best as he scored a half-century in the previous match and will be the key player in the middle order along with Salman Agha, Usman Khan, and Fakhar Zaman. The two all-rounders, Mohammad Nawaz and Faheem Ashraf, have done well and will add depth to the batting.
Mohammad Nawaz is the leading wicket-taker of the tournament. He will be joined by Usman Tariq in the spin department. The latter picked up a hat-trick in the match against Zimbabwe and will hope to replicate the performance in this match. The pace attack consists of Naseem Shah, Muhammad Waseem Jr, and Faheem Ashraf.
Pakistan Expected Playing 11

Sri Lanka
After a couple of terrible outings at the start of the tournament, Sri Lanka kept its qualification hopes alive by defeating Zimbabwe on Tuesday. However, given their terrible NRR, the team has only one option here, and that is to win if they want to reach the finals.\
Pathum Nissanka played a brilliant innings of 98 runs to guide his team to a much-needed win and remains the key batsman for Sri Lanka. However, he will need better support from Kamil Mishara, who joins him at the other end in the opening slot.
The middle order is made up of Kusal Mendis, Kusal Perera, Janith Liyanage, and Dasun Shanaka. However, none of them have batted well so far. Sri Lanka needs at least a couple of them to stay on and play a longer inning.
Wanindu Hasaranga is Sri Lanka’s leading wicket-taker in this tournament and has 5 wickets against his name. He will be joined by Maheesh Theekshana in the spin department. The pace attack consists of Eshan Malinga and Dushmantha Chameera. However, they have been expensive at times.
Sri Lanka Expected Playing 11
Pathum Nissanka, Kamil Mishara, Kusal Perera, Kusal Mendis (WK), Janith Liyanage, Dasun Shanaka (C), Pavan Rathnayake, Wanindu Hasaranga, Maheesh Theekshana, Dushmantha Chameera, Eshan Malinga
PAK vs SL Toss Prediction
3 of the 5 matches played here in this tournament have been won while chasing. We, therefore, think that the team winning the toss will likely opt to bowl first.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
We are expecting a good batting surface for this match. The pitch has dried out, and the seamers will have to work hard to pick up wickets. Once the batsmen settle down, scoring runs will be easier. The team batting first will look to score around 180 runs. The slower bowlers are likely to play an important role in this match.
The weather will remain clear with temperatures under 20 degrees. The dew could be a factor in the second half.
PAK vs SL: Who Will Win?
We are backing Pakistan to win this match. They have been clinical with the bat and ball and have a good momentum going for them. While Sri Lanka did win the previous match, their middle order batting hasn’t been consistent, and the seamers have struggled as well.
Bet on Pakistan to win.
