PAK vs SL live stream: how to watch Cricket World Cup

Sri Lanka’s bowlers will have 344 to defend after their batsmen took them to 344-9 with Kusal Mendis and Samarawickrama both scoring centuries, Mendis made 122 off 77 balls and Samarawickrama scored 108 of 89 balls after Sri Lanka won the toss and batted first in Hyderabad. 

Pakistan and Sri Lanka makes for an enticing match up between two mercurial sides scrabbling for some consistent form. The shell-shocked Lions have flown in to Hyderabad to face a Pakistan side that has been based here a while, and who beat Netherlands at this stadium on Friday by 81 runs. The advantage looks to be with the Men in Green.

Sri Lanka come into this match having conceded a world cup record 428 runs against South Africa, during which Aiden Markram blasted the fastest hundred in the tournament’s history, off 49 balls.

Sri Lanka will be relieved that off spinner Maheesh Theekshana is likely to return to take some of the burden off 20-year old slow left-armer Dunith Wellalage. Reflecting on the defeat to South Africa, Lions assistant coach Naveed Nawazhe said: “We expect to face similar pitches: it's going to be batting-friendly mostly. We have to look at our execution and see how we could've pulled back another 50-60 runs.”

Sri Lanka can perhaps take heart from Pakistan’s batting not being entirely convincing against the Netherlands. It stumbled early on, falling to 38-3, before before the late order carried them to 286.

In all matches between these two sides, the record stands at 92 wins to 59 in Pakistan’s favor. But in their world cup meetings, the scoreline is 7-0 to Pakistan. Sri Lanka have, however, won their most recent meeting, their crucial Super 4 s clash in the Asia Cup.
