*Pakistan team is taking a squad of 17 players and this time around there are some new players and according to the selection committee they want to give them some exposure of the dressing room; I hope they get some experience, coz they will be in mingling along with the one of the best players of Pakistani cricket (Past and Present).
Interesting facts about the Srilankan ground(s) is that, you will find swing and bit of seam movement for the fast bowlers in D/N games thanks to the dew factor and Oh well they will have the fair share of mosquite bites *
*and certainly there will be spin because of the dry nature of the pitch. Srilanka and Pakistan are coming after some serious losses, Pakistan losing 4 games to India and Srilanka loosing one -off game to Bangladesh.
How will this ODI seires fare off, will Pakistan be able to gather all the pieces and play well or Srilanka will fly high with their fans cheering them with home ground advantage!.
Goodluck *![]()
