Hosts Sri Lanka will be keen to get back on their winning ways when they take on Pakistan in the second game of the Test series at Colombo's Sinhalese Sports Club.


Sri Lanka is ready to face Pakistan in the second test of Pakistan tour of Sri Lanka. The game will be played at Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo.

The hosts will suffer from the loss in the first test and will no doubt be disappointed with their overall performance. Their batting performance in the first innings was commendable thanks to Dhanajaya De Silva's Century and Angelo Matthews' Half-Century, but they struggled to keep the momentum going.

Ramesh Mendis' goal in the first inning gave them hope, but the brilliance of Saud Shakeel's double century sent them into misery. In the second inning, De Silva held his own again, but lack of support from the other batters resulted in a modest goal of 133, which proved insufficient as Pakistan crushed the ball with four wickets in hand.

The Lankers will be looking to regroup and come back stronger, aiming to even the two-game streak and salvage some Pride.

Pakistan, on the other hand, will go into the second test in high spirits after clinching a win in the first game. Their bowling unit put on a collective and disciplined performance that posed great challenges for the Sri Lankan batsmen.
However, it was Saud Shakeel's outstanding double-century in the first inning that turned the tide in Pakistan's favour.

While they put on a great showing as a team, Pakistan would wish their other batsmen played harder and provided more support in the second Test.

A win in this game would seal the streak for them and they will look to secure the chance with a dominant performance.

Match Preview

Sri Lanka will play Pakistan in the second Test match of the Pakistan tour of Sri Lanka at the Sinhalese Sports Club compound in Colombo from July 24th. Pakistan won the first test to take an unassailable 1-0 lead, but Sri Lanka would also keep an eye on that game to level the streak.

The last match between these two teams was played at Galle International Stadium where Sri Lanka won the throw and decided to hit. Deciding to hit didn't prove to be a good decision for them as they were reduced to 53 for four, but then they had two consecutive brilliant partnerships that got them back in the game and amassed a good 312 runs on the board overall. Pakistan appeared to be in trouble when they lost the fifth wicket on a score of 101, but then Saud Shakeel's magic performance began, scoring an unbeatable double ton and Pakistan gaining a 149 lead in the first inning.

In the second inning, Sri Lanka looked much better right from the start as the team scored a fifty in the opener. Their hero from the first innings, Dhananjaya de Silva, was again their top scorer but was unlucky to miss his century this time. Sri Lanka could only hit 279 runs in the second inning, giving Pakistan the 131 target. Pakistan was chasing the total and appeared to be in trouble when a solid partnership between Imam ul Haq and Saud Shakeel put them in safe waters. Pakistan won the game by four wickets.


Pitch Report



The Sinhalese Sports Club Ground offers a pitch that would be helpful for batters. Spinners can play a crucial role in the game as they make some turns and bounce off the track. Hitters who can negate spin have a better chance of scoring big points on this floor. Teams that win the toss elect to bat first, with the average first innings total being 278.

Weather Report



The weather forecast predicts difficult conditions: temperatures will rise to 29 °C and the probability of thunderstorms is high. Humidity is expected to be around 80%, which could increase player discomfort and make conditions even more challenging.

Toss Prediction



With rain forecast for the game, both teams will aim to win the toss, bowl first in cloudy condition. The average first inning score at Sinhalese Sports Club is around 332 runs

Venue Details



Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo will host the second and final game of the Test series between Sri Lanka and Pakistan. The Islanders will be encouraged by the fact that they won their last game against Pakistan at Sinhalese Sports Club in 2014.

Match Prediction

Pakistan's consistency and strength in all areas of the game make them the front runners, capping the streak with a win in the second Test.

However, as the home side, Sri Lanka will enjoy the advantage of the usual conditions. If their batters can match the likes of Dhanajaya De Silva and perform well, they could cause an upset.

Prediction: Pakistan will win the game



Head to Head



Both teams have played against each other in 58 test matches so far. Pakistan has won 22 of them while Sri Lanka has won 17. 19 games ended in a draw.

Betting Tips


Pakistan put on an ice-cold performance in the first game and we expect them to remain in good form. Superior bowling attack makes Pakistan very dangerous at all stages of the game, but their shots are a bit shaky. Sri Lanka, on the other hand, has a lot of improvements to make and we don't expect that to happen any time soon.

Bet on Pakistan to win.


Probable Playing XI



Sri Lanka



Dimuth Karunaratne (c), Nishan Madushka, Kusal Mendis, Angelo Mathews, Dhananjaya de Silva, Dinesh Chandimal, Sadeera Samarawickrama (wk), Ramesh Mendis, Prabath Jayasuriya, Vishwa Fernando, Kasun Rajitha

Pakistan

Abdullah Shafique, Imam-ul-Haq, Shan Masood, Babar Azam (c), Saud Shakeel, Sarfaraz Ahmed (wk), Agha Salman, Nauman Ali, Abrar Ahmed, Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah

Top Fantasy Picks Dream11 Prediction

Sri Lanka Key Players

Dhananjaya de Silva was the most consistent player in the last game where he scored well in both innings. With a hundred and a half centuries in the last game, he hit 204 runs and could be a fantastic option for the captain's role.

Ramesh Mendis spun the ball well in the last game and managed to put up a fifer for Sri Lanka in the first innings. He later scored 47 runs in the game and finished the game with six wickets in his kitty.

Prabath Jayasuriya With seven wickets in the last game, Prabath Jayasuriya was the most successful bowler in the last game. He is a talented crackpot for Sri Lanka and needs to find a place in your team.

Angelo Mathews is a veteran batsman having played over 100 friendly matches for Sri Lanka. He was brilliant in the first innings, hitting 64 runs, but couldn't do the same in the second innings.

Pakistan Key Players

Agha Salman was clearly one of the best performing all-rounders of the last game on both sides. He had 83 runs in the first innings and also scalped three wickets later in the game.

Saud Shakeel was nothing short of phenomenal in the final game, earning him a well-deserved Player of the Match award for his performance. He totaled 238 runs in the last game and should be the one to lead your team into this game.

Abrar Ahmed impressed everyone with his bowling performance in the last game. He picked up three wickets in both the first and second innings of the game and could be a crucial pick in this game as well.

Shaheen Afridi  had caused a lot of problems for the Lankan batsmen in the last game and also showed good numbers. He took five wickets in the game and is expected to play well in this game as well.
