Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Predictions


Sri Lanka’s recent wins have come against lower-ranked sides, while Pakistan have only lost to India in their last five matches. I am backing Pakistan to outclass struggling Sri Lanka.

  • Pakistan’s Sahibzada Farhan has scored 29, 40 & 58 in his last 4 innings.
  • Pakistan’s Fakhar Zaman has scored 27, 23* & 50 in his last 5 innings.
  • Sri Lanka’s Pathum Nissanka hit two sixes in his 44-ball 68 against Hong Kong.
  • Sri Lanka’s Dasun Shanaka hit six sixes in his 37-ball 64* against Bangladesh.

Head-to-Head


Sri Lanka have won the last five meetings between the two sides, with their last match being back in 2022.

Pakistan Form


Pakistan suffered their second defeat in five matches (both against India) when they lost to India by six wickets. 

Pakistan reached 171/5 off their 20 overs against India, with Sahibzada Farhan top-scoring with 58 off 45 balls.

India made a great start and were always ahead of the asking rate, hitting their target with seven balls in hand. Haris Rauf (2/26, econ 6.50) was the pick of the Pakistan bowlers. 

Pakistan Team News


Despite losing twice to India, Pakistan are in good form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team to face Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka Form


Sri Lanka suffered their first defeat in five matches when they lost to Bangladesh by four wickets. 

Sri Lanka could only reach 168/7 off their 20 overs. Dasun Shanaka kept them in the match with a fiery 64* off 37 balls.

Wanindu Hasaranga (2/22) and Dasun Shanaka (2/21) did their best to deny Bangladesh, but couldn’t prevent them snatching a four-wicket win with one ball to spare. 

Sri Lanka Team News


Sri Lanka will be hoping their batters can all find form in this key match, as the loser will have a tough time securing a spot in the final.

Verdict

I am backing Pakistan to win. I am also backing Sahibzada Farhan to top score for Pakistan.

Pathum Nissanka is a good bet to top score for Sri Lanka.
