Pakistan (PAK) vs Sri Lanka (SL) 1st T20 Match Live Streaming: The road to the T20 World Cup will intensify as co-hosts Sri Lanka mark their final lap of preparations with a three-match T20I series against Pakistan, starting on Wednesday.
The teams will engage in matches at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium in Dambulla with both sides yet to officially reveal their 15-member squads for the World Cup, starting in a month’s time.
Sri Lanka have surprisingly reinstated Dasun Shanaka as the captain in the format, replacing Charith Asalanka. It is likely that the squad that will feature in this series will more or less be the team Sri Lanka field in the World Cup games. Meanwhile, Pakistan enter the series with a side that is missing big names such as Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi who are currently playing in the Big Bash League in Australia.
