THE PREDICTION
Pakistan have their work cut out for them in this match against a strong Sri Lankan spin-bowling attack coming off the back of bowling out South Africa for just 167 in their last match. Pakistan should prove a tougher test though, with their young batters more adept at playing against high-quality spin coming from another country in the sub-continent. Over the course of the tournament, Pakistan’s batters have impressed and should lay the foundations for a strong performance here. Provided their bowlers can match their expected high levels, then Pakistan should emerge triumphant over Sri Lanka.
