Sri Lanka 80-4 after 21

They've been losing wickets regularly. Silva and Dilshan the current batsmen.
 
Re: 1st ODI: Pakistan v Sri Lanka

Dilshan gone for 15

Sri Lanka 103-5 after 25.4 overs

Looks like they're going to have a tough time reaching 200 today.
 
Re: 1st ODI: Pakistan v Sri Lanka

Maharoof scored 69 not out, that's his all-time ODI best, and it may have helped to rescue Sri Lanka today!

Sri Lanka 235-9 after 50 overs
 
Re: 1st ODI: Pakistan v Sri Lanka

Pakistan 131-4 after 30 overs

They need 105 from the last 20, just a little over 5 per over.
Pakistan have a tiny edge right now, but another wicket or two would swing things right back to Sri Lanka.
 
Re: 1st ODI: Pakistan v Sri Lanka

wow!!!!

that'll do it right there!

Boom boom Afridi scores 32 runs in one over!!!! including 4 straight sixes

446666!!




only need 28 more now
 
Re: 1st ODI: Pakistan v Sri Lanka

Easy win in the end, Pakistan reached 239-5 with still 8 overs to go.
The final partnership was the one that won it, with Kamran Akmal scoring 51 from 51 balls, and Shahid Afridi scoring 73 from a mere 34 balls!
