Srilanka vs Pakistan Prediction: Srilanka to level up the series in the final game of the series

Sri Lanka will be battling out to level the series 1-1 against Asian giants Pakistan. Who will come on top in the second and final game of the series?

Sri Lanka is coming on the back of a great win against favorites Australia when they beat them with one inning but then lost in the first game against Pakistan. They are currently sitting in the third spot in the ICC World Test Championship 2021-23 points table. Pathum Nissanka, Oshada Fernando, Angelo Mathews, Kusal Mendis, and Dinesh Chandimal are the main men who will play a crucial role in the outcome of this game. They need to win the game to level up the series and gain some points in the World Test Championship.

Dimuth Karunaratne (C), Pathum Nissanka, Oshada Fernando, Angelo Mathews, Dhananjaya de Silva, Kamindu Mendis, Ramesh Mendis, Kusal Mendis, Niroshan Dickwella, Dinesh Chandimal, Maheesh Theekshana, Kasun Rajitha, Vishwa Fernando, Asitha Fernando, Dilshan Madushanka, Prabath Jayasuriya, Dunith Wellalage, Jeffrey Vandersay.

Babar Azam will be leading the Pakistani team in this game and it will be interesting to see how he handles the team in this game. His team was not clinical enough but got the job done in the end. They were able to chase down a challenging total in the fourth innings of the game. Spinners will be key in this game and Pakistan has plenty of good ones. Abdullah Shafique, Azahar Ali, Imam-ul-Haq, Mohammed Rizwan, Shaheen Afridi, and Hasan Ali will be the key men going into the game. 

Babar Azam (C), Abdullah Shafique, Azhar Ali, Fawad Alam, Imam-ul-Haq, Shan Masood, Saud Shakeel, Agha Salman, Faheem Ashraf, Mohammad Nawaz, Nauman Ali, Mohammad Rizwan, Sarfaraz Ahmed, Haris Rauf, Naseem Shah, Shaheen Afridi, Yasir Shah, Hasan Ali.

We are expecting a slow and turning wicket at Galle with plenty of help for the bowlers. The pitch is expected to assist the spinners as days go along. The toss-winning captain will be looking to bat first as 21 out of 38 games have been won by the team batting first. We are expecting Sri Lanka to win the game as they have added pressure to level up the series.

• Sri Lanka to win for 2.92;
• Highest Opening Partnership - Team 2 for 1.616;
• Top Batsman Team 2 - Babar Azam for 3.5
