**Official** Pakistan in Sri Lanka

Another thing i would like to add to your knowledge. After 2003 WC Pakistan has only had 3 test tours out side the subcontinent in which Pakistan has won 1 against NZ lost 1 against Australia and drew 1 Against Westindies. Now this really is good decent record considering that all teams struggle in Australia against Australia, with the exception of the 2003 Indian Side.

I still don't think Pak middle order is as strong as of Australia, however as far as Yousuf is concerned, i guess we have to wait to see how he performs in England this time around.Also Pakistan's performnce in England will be a real test of the team.If they lose badly to England then it will prove my initial observation right that this is a team that will struggle poorly while playing overseas.However if they manage to do well or even draw the series then i guess it will show that the team is doing remarkably under Inzamam in test matches.

SL without Sanath, Vaas and Ruchira Perera will have to play extremely well .

Looks like SL set to qualify for the Champions Trophy thru play offs !!

A great start by the Lankans, but it looks like Pakistan has steadied their ship..

Butt has just fallen to Malinga, his been really impressive today. Pitch doesn’t look too pretty, anything around 220 and the Paks should win.

Inzy vs. Murali is always fun to watch.

Edit: The ball is keeping low and we are barely into the 23rd over of the game.

I think 250 should be an excellent total on this track.

Great stuff...

The bounce can only get worse as well, Asif is going to be a right handful on this wicket, especially with the uneven bounce and pace.

Hmm, should Inzamam bat at number 3?
always wanted to see him bat at number 3.. he has more time to play his shots and has the termperment to stay till the end of the innings..

Not much batting left for Pakistan now, they are 125-5, and i reckon they will get near 175-190, which wouldn't be enough to win the match.

A total of 240-250 would have been a defendable one, looks like Pak will continue their poor run in ODI.Fifth consecutive loss in ODI might spell trouble for big man Inzi.
