I think SL would hv lost the series (0-2) to Aus, if not for the desh bhakti shown by Adharmasena.  He gave 2 to 3 wrong decisions in fav of home team.  Unfortunately Aus had exhausted their reviews by then.  

Well saffers had 2 or 3 decisions in thier favour vs India too and it cost us big time because we were about 2 wickets away from winning. Their tail is long. 

[Frustrated]

Well, it's going to be Aus vs Poyz at WTC Final.  Best wishes to both teams.

Not really. Poyz will do well to win even a single series at home against England and New Zealand. Wickets in Pakistan just aren't suited to their playing style no matter how hard they try. 

[Nikola]

Well done pakistan to pick up 6 wickets even after having dharmasena as the umpire.

Not really...  England & NZ both will fancy themselves in Pakistan.   I suspect England will win the series on those roads. 

[Norman]

Chandimal is the key wicket here. He has a knack if stitching up crucial partnerships with the tail and also attacks spinners really well. 

[Lone Wolf]

Poyzz themselves have a thin batting line up..  Too many bits n pieces player in that middle order.  Babar & Rizwan are key men. 

SL could put up a fight if they reach at least 200 here.

Nah. They don't have the bowling for it. Broad, Woakes, Potts aren't Cummins and starc. And Leach is nowhere close to Lyon. 

 

Pakistan may win 1-0 or something. 

[Lone Wolf]

Good aggressive bouncer from Naseem gets Mendis.

Stone might be fit then...  Maybe even Woods.  Series will be late December I think.  Woakes will definately won't get picked.  Jamie Overton is an option as well. 

[Norman]

Brainless batting by Chandimal. He's much better than this with the tail.

Pakistan batting is not that weak that they'll fail against no names like stone, Overton etc. Woakes will have figures of 1/130 if he plays.

Lol at Stone the glass man. 

Jamie is a very good prospect but he will struggle on flat wickets.

Let's see though..  I don't think their batting is so good.  They heavily rely on Babar & Rizwan...  Nor they have batting depth. 

[Lone Wolf]

Azhar chachu runs like Gujara as well...  Man those knees

[Austin 3:!6]

In Theekasena - we trust

[Lone Wolf]

Lassan bowling 128-129kph...  Dollies.   Poor man's Boobie koomar HHopefully he gets to play WT20 too

[Norman]

No. 10 and 11 have added 40 runs. 

[Norman]

222 all out. Not a bad score after being 130/8.

 

Now SL spinners need to come to the party and restrict Pak to 250 ish although this looks like a pretty good wicket to bat on.

Naseem I don't think bowled a single delivery over 140kph, sadly those horrendous Pak speed guns not at play here. So technically Siraj is faster than all the Pak pacers that are on show here.
