Pakistan vs Sri Lanka Prediction
It is going to be a tough game for both sides in this game, with Pakistan seeking to secure a series win in this game and Sri Lanka hoping to draw level. The hosts have managed to secure three wins in their last four ODIs, so they are full of momentum, and I see them securing a win here. Nevertheless, I think Salman Agha, fresh off a match-winning 105* in the first ODI, will be the top batter for the hosts once again.
