Pakistan to lose this match for sure.....how in hell do they expect to chase anything at 5 runs an over?

Russell Arnold just tweeted that Lahiru's on-side play has improved and he's rotating the strike better - someone watching to confirm?

Also good to see Sri Lanka applying some scoreboard pressure, they were the victim of that back in the UAE

Yeah, there's no way Pakistan is going to chase whatever's being set here without someone playing a really special innings.

does the odi side needs Afridi when Hafeez does the same role can easily play Fawad for him.

Yeah I've been saying this for ages. You can't have Afrid and Hafeez both batting in the top seven. If Ajmal is injured/rested or the pitch is really going to be suitable for playing three spinners then sure they can both play, but in that case Afridi has to be slotted in at #8. Regardless of their reputations they both perform as bowling allrounders, and having four specialist bowlers and two bowling allrounders is just a little silly, especially when your bowling is so much better than your batting anyway.

@Maximas....At any rate the match really is out of Pakistan's grasp.

I can't remember when was the last time Pakistan chased anything over 250 in an ODI? Anybody?

300-310 Pak is in the game SL bowling is nothing special especially with Malinga in a decline/poor form.
